为下一代电力-BECCS电厂混合生物质燃料

Abstract To meet future resource requirements for the uptake of bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) technologies to meet Net Zero targets, a range of biomass feedstocks are required to ensure the security of supply, utilise waste materials, and promote the circular economy. This study investigates the potential for blending forestry/agricultural residues and waste wood products with woody biomasses in combustion-based Power-BECCS, using a process model developed in Aspen Plus and validated against literature data. The base case assessment highlights the key performance indicators (KPIs) and energy penalty associated with CCS for next-generation BECCS plants. The results of a comparative study show the impact of blending various biomass species on plant KPIs. This research provides the basis for decision making on feedstock selection and optionality. Several alternate fuels produce similar KPIs to the base case, in some cases generating more net power (Fuels B, D, E, F, H, and I) or capturing more CO 2 (Fuels C and G). Overall, blending biomass fuels is a promising option to utilise alternate feedstocks, improve plant performance, and enhance the Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) potential.
