Abstract

The development of amine scrubbing for coal and natural gas-fired power plants represents a key technology to reduce CO2 emissions. Among the strategies required to maximize CO2 capture during plant operations is the design of tailor-made dynamic models for optimal control. This paper presents a novel application of subspace system identification to a CO2 recovery plant, where major decision variables are considered to develop a simple state space model that can estimate more than sixty process outputs. This model demonstrates to have a great predictive potential, which opens opportunities for the implementation of robust predictive controllers that can quickly adjust to power plant load changes. © 2011 IEEE.
