Gas turbine peaking power plant with co2 capture

Abstract

A power production facility comprises a gas turbine engine to combust fuel in a combustion process to produce exhaust gas to produce shaft power for generating electricity, a steam system to produce steam with heat from the exhaust gas for injection into the combustion process, and an emissions capture system to receive the exhaust gas to remove pollutants, receive steam from the steam system to provide heat to the emissions capture system, and provide water to the steam system. A method of removing emissions from a power plant comprises generating exhaust with a gas turbine engine, generating steam in a steam system from water with heat from the exhaust, injecting steam into a combustor of the gas turbine engine, heating an emissions capture unit with steam, removing emissions from the exhaust with the emissions capture unit, and collecting water from the emissions capture unit for providing to the steam supply.
