Research and application of modular skid-mounted CO2 recovery technology
Under the background of"carbon peak and carbon neutrality",traditional chemical enterprises are encountering challenges due to CO2 emission limitations.CCUS(Carbon Capture,Utilization and Storage)technology emerges as a crucial strategy for addressing CO2 emissions.To mitigate emissions at the source,chemical companies are turning to CO2 flue gas capture and recovery technologies,while also exploring ways to integrate these efforts into a cost-effective CCUS industrial chain.To overcome the drawbacks of traditional CO2 flue gas recovery units,such as large land use,high construction costs,inflexibility,and lengthy construction times,the modular skid-mounted CO2 recovery technology has been introduced.This innovative approach minimizes upfront investment and accelerates project timelines by modularizing the recovery process,allowing for 100%factory prefabrication and streamlined on-site assembly.The skid-mounted design efficiently organizes pipelines and valves,integrating equipment within each module onto skids,resulting in a fully modular skid-mounted CO2 recovery unit.Field applications demonstrate significant advantages of the modular skid-mounted approach over conventional methods.For example,a 5×104 tons per year coal-to-hydrogen CO2 flue gas recovery unit saw a 74.0%reduction in construction costs,a 75.2%decrease in required space,and a 50.0%shorter construction timeline,effectively meeting the objectives of cost reduction and expedited project completion.
