Abstract
A process for providing heat energy to an ammonia cracking reactor. The invention comprising recovering an oxygen containing off-gas from a hydrogen fueled gas turbine and supplying at least a portion of the off-gas to a fuel combustion zone to produce heat energy for the ammonia cracking reactor. The invention finds use in chemical production facilities, such as ammonia production facilities.
Claims18
A process for generating power using a gas turbine fueled by a carbon free fuel derived from the catalytic cracking of ammonia, the process comprising:
- supplying an ammonia stream to an ammonia cracking reactor;
- cracking the ammonia in the ammonia stream in the ammonia cracking reactor to produce a hydrogen containing stream;
- combining the hydrogen containing stream with an oxygen containing feed and combusting the hydrogen containing stream with the oxygen containing feed to produce a combusted gas stream;
- using the combusted gas stream to drive a gas turbine and produce an oxygen containing off-gas stream;
- supplying at least a portion of the oxygen containing off-gas stream to a fuel combustion zone;
- and
- combusting a fuel stream and the oxygen containing off-gas stream in the fuel combustion zone to produce heat energy for the ammonia cracking reactor.
