Environmental assessment of coal power plant with carbon dioxide capture system based on activated carbon adsorption process: A case study of the Czech Republic

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Czech Republic with coal-based energy industry is introducing the new concepts of technologies for mitigation of greenhouse gases (GHG). One of such a technology is the post combustion CO2 capture from flue gases in power plant by the activated carbon adsorption. In order to prove if the CO2 capture technology is effective from the environmental point of view, Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) was chosen as the assessment tool. The article focuses on the comparative LCA case study for the technology of temperature-swing adsorption of CO2 from power plant flue gas which was designed on the example of the Czech Republic conditions. The LCA study compares two alternatives: 1.) Reference power unit 2.) Reference power unit with CO2 adsorption. The most significant changes are seen in the environmental categories of climate change potential, terrestrial acidification and particulate matter formation. Adsorption process is showing rather low environmental impacts, but the further Pareto analyses shows increase of energy demands for the process and fossils depletion, as a result of coal-based national energy mix. The study is completed by the preliminary economical calculation of the payback period for a commercial carbon capture unit.
