Abstract

Abstract: In recent years,CO₂ capture technologies are going through a rapid development stage from single process of CO₂ separation to integrated synergy processes of CO₂ separation,storage or utilization. Such a development trend also poses a higher challenge to the integration solution of solar-assisted CO₂ capture technologies. This paper overviewed three innovative solar-assisted CO₂ capture technologies(chemical looping combustion,hydrate-based CO₂ capture and thermal chemical cycle)and made an in-depth analysis in terms of integration solution,operational parameters and performance,et al. Then based on the theory of ideal separation minimum work and second-law efficiency,a performance evaluation and comparison are conducted between innovative and conventional technologies. The results showed that,for gas mixtures with CO₂ concentration from 5%~20%,absorption and thermal chemical cycle are relatively mature applications with higher second-law efficiency,and it is easy to achieve separation for hydrate-based CO₂ capture because of the lowest minimum work. The innovative solar-assisted CO₂ capture technologies can promote the production of carbon products and take an important step for the construction of global carbon cycle.

摘要： 近年来，CO₂捕集技术正在从定向分离的单一过程向同步存储或利用的集成过程快速过渡。这种发展趋势也对太阳能辅助碳捕集的集成形式提出了更高的要求。本文综述了化学链燃烧、水合物法和热化学循环三种新型太阳能辅助碳捕集技术，从辅助方式、操作条件和性能等方面展开深入分析。围绕理想分离最小功和二次定律效率两个参数，对新技术和传统技术进行了性能评价和对比。结果说明了对于CO₂体积分数在5%～20%的混合气体，吸收法和热化学循环法的二次定律效率较高，发展较为成熟，而水合物法的分离最小功最小，理论上较易实现分离。新型太阳能辅助碳捕集技术可促进碳产品的生产，为全球碳循环的搭建完成了重要的一环。
