Callide oxyfuel research project, Part 1: Removal of SOx, NOx and mercury gas...Global CCS Institute
To highlight the research and achievements of Australian researchers, the Global CCS Institute with ANLEC R&D will hold a series of webinars throughout 2016. Each webinar will highlight a specific ANLEC R&D research project and the relevant report found on the Institute’s website. This was the second webinar of the series, which focused on experiments quantifying and optimising the removal of SOx, NOx and mercury gases using compressed gaseous slip streams from the CPU as part of the Callide Oxyfuel Project.
The Callide Oxyfuel Project in central Queensland, Australia, has demonstrated carbon capture using oxyfuel technology on a retrofitted 30 MWe boiler. The project comprised of 2 x 330 t/day air separation units, a 30 MWe oxy-fuel boiler and a 75 t/day CO2 capture plant. The plant was commissioned in 2012 and operated for three years achieving nominally 10,000 hours of industrial operation in oxy-combustion mode.
The project has been able to demonstrate CO2 capture rates from the Oxyfuel flue gas stream to the CO2 capture plant in excess of 85%, and producing a high quality CO2 product suitable for geological storage. In addition, other benefits observed from the oxy-firing and CO2 capture demonstration have included: (i) increased boiler combustion efficiency; (ii) greater than 50% reduction in stack NOx mass emission rates; and (iii) almost complete removal of all toxic gaseous emissions including SOx, NOx, particulates and trace elements from the flue gas stream in the CO2 capture plant (CPU).
This webinar provided a technical presentation of experiments quantifying and optimising the removal of SOx, NOx and mercury gases using compressed gaseous slip streams from the CPU, complemented by plant measurements by the University Of Newcastle, supported by Australian National Low Emission R&D. This webinar was presented by Professor Terry Wall and Dr Rohan Stanger from The University of Newcastle, Australia.

Gas chromatography
1. By Pratik P. Shinde (M.Pharm )
2. Index
3. Gas chromatography- It is a common type of chromatography used in analytical chemistry for separating and analyzing compounds that can be vaporized without decomposition. In gas chromatography, the mobile phase is a carrier gas, usually an inert gas such as helium or an unreactive gas such as nitrogen
It has two types
Gas-liquid chromatography: The mobile phase is a gas and the stationary phase is a thin layer of a non volatile liquid bound to solid support. A partition process occurs
Gas- solid chromatography: The mobile phase is a gas and the stationary phase is a solid adsorbent and adsorption process take place
4. Principle: The component which is more soluble in stationary phase travel slower and eluted later. The component which is less soluble in stationary phase travels faster and eluted out first.
Gas-liquid chromatography: The components of mixture distribute themselves between gas phase and the stationary liquid phase according to their partition coefficients.
Gas- solid chromatography: The components of mixture distribute themselves between gas phase and the stationary adsorbent and the separation is due to the differences in adsorptive behaviour.
5. Instrumentation: Carrier gas - He (common), N2, H2, Argon

7. Carrier gas: Carrier gas used in gas chromatography should meet the following criteria:
The pressure of gas should be between 40-80psi.
It should be chemically inert.
It should be cheap and readily available.
It should be of high quality and not cause any fire accident.
It should be suitable for the sample to be analyzed and for the detector.
Commonly use gases include Helium, nitrogen, hydrogen and carbon dioxide.
8. Helium (He):
Good thermal conductivity
Low density
Inert but expensive
Flow rate : 25 -150 mL/min for packed columns
Flow rate: 2-25 mL/min for open tubular column
Inlet pressure ranges from 10-50psi
Nitrogen:
Inexpensive
Easily available
Hydrogen:
Low density
Easily available
React with unsaturated compound
Carbon-dioxide and Argon:
9. Gas purification and filtration: Filters and traps: Traps help remove moisture, oxygen, hydrocarbons and other impurities from gas lines. Metal or glass traps are commonly used. Plastic traps like plastic tubes are not recommended. Traps are available with standard 1/4”or 1/8” compression fittings.
Moisture traps: are generally self indicating type and packed with molecular sieves or silica gel which will reduce both oxygen and moisture to less than 15 ppb.
Hydrocarbon traps are useful for removing hydrocarbon impurities by absorption on activated charcoal. A 20 μm frit removes particulate impurities.

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.
UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.

2. Introduction about Orsat Apparatus
An Orsat gas apparatus is a piece of Laboratory Equipment used to analyze a gas sample
(Typically fossil fuel flue gas) for its oxygen, carbon monoxide and carbon di
oxide content. Although largely replaced by instrumental techniques, the Orsat remains a
reliable method of measurement and is relatively simple to use.
It was patented before 1873 by Mr. H Orsat.
The apparatus consists essentially of a calibrated water-jacketed
gas burette connected by glass capillary tubing to two or three absorption pipettes
containing chemical solutions that absorb the gasses it is required to measure. For safety
and portability, the apparatus is usually encased in a wooden box.

3. Flue Gas Analysis
Flue gases are the outlet gases obtained when a fuel is burned with air in combustion
equipment's like engines and boilers. Based on the fuel composition flue gases are formed,
a fuel having carbon and hydrogen compounds generates flue gas containing oxides of
carbon and hydrogen because the oxygen in air burns with components that release heat
energy and resulting the combusted materials.
In construction of fire heater, boilers, combustion engines and combustor
the outlet is given out with a cylinder shape chimney so that the hot flue gases are ejected
into the atmosphere. In design and calculating the performance of the above equipment's
the flue gas is used for analysis which help to determine the composition of the carbon
dioxide, oxygen, nitrogen and carbon monoxide.
Based on this analysis results the fuel inlet flow
rate, air flow rate and burner are controlled to get the efficiency of the fired heaters. By the
following presentation the flue gas analysis can be demonstrated by using Orsat apparatus,
of course this is a standard piece of equipment. Many high accurate digital and portable
devices are available to determine the composition of flue gas.
Flue gas analysis
carried out at
stage-1
4. working principle
The apparatus used for flue gas ( O2, CO2 & CO ) analysis is called Orsat Apparatus
It consists of a water burette of 100ml.capacity and is graduated in 0.2ml divisions, it
is connected to a stop cock at top with an absorption pipette connected at each
position .
The absorption pipette contain 30% KOH Which is used to remove CO2 from
flue gas. The second absorption pipette from flue gas contain 30% alkaline pyragallol
solution which absorb O2 gas from flue gas . Some time a third absorption pipette is
provided to measure CO ( in case of incomplete combustion ). It contain ammonia Cal
cuprous chloride solution .
The bottom of the burette is connected to a movable reservoir
( levelling bottle ) containing 25% NaCl solution acidified with HCl and colored with
methyl orange .
By adjusting the height of levelling bottle gases in burette may be
vented to atmosphere . The were five stop cock valve in ORSAT apparatus as shown
in figure . There are four steps to operate this apparatus .
5. Chemical absorption phenomena
Typical flue gas analyzers measure the quantity of carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide
and oxygen by a chemical absorption principle. Based on the absorption factor of these
three components their respective absorbing solutions are selected in three different
bulb compartments. When the gas is passed into these bulbs consecutively, where
each component is separated in sequence that helps to know the volume drop from
initial flue gas volume.
Water vapor in flue gas removed by adsorption on solid calcium
chloride and then passed into three pipettes. The sequence of absorption should
always be started from CO2, O2 and CO if the absorption solutions are ammoniacal
cuprous chloride; alkaline pyrogalic acid and KOH were selected as reagent in the
Orsat apparatus analyzer

6. Operation of Orsat apparatus by
volumetric procedure
Step No.1
Open the stop cock valve No .1 and raise the levelling g bottle to such a height ,
So that colored water level is “0” position in the burette. Close valve no connect
the rubber tubing to sample line and open the
Valve on sampling line . Also open the valve No.1 allow the gas sample to
bubble through colored solution and let it to scape in the atmosphere through
neck of levelling bottle to inshore that all air has been expelled from the
apparatus .
Step No.2
Collect about 110-120ml gas in the burette by the lowering leveling bottle . Close
the valve No.1 and open No.5 . The water level in the burette will slightly raise as
Pressure of the gas sample release to the atmosphere slowly raise the levelling
bottle to the position , So that water level at the burette is 100 close valve No.5.
in this way exactly 100ml of gas at atmosphere pressure has been collected .
7. Operation of Orsat apparatus
Step No.3
Now open valve No.4 and raise the levelling bottle to a suitable height. By this
operation pressure builds p in the burette due to in coming colored water. The
gas in the burette is forced into absorption pipette containing 30% KOH Solution
.the KOH Solution is forced to move into the solution reservation attached to the
pipette . Now lower the leveling bottle , as level of water lower in the raising and
lowering of levelling bottle . The gas coms in contact with absorption solution
several time .close valve No.4.
Now bring the level bottle to a position so that its
water level and water level in the burette same. Read the level of water in the
burette suppose it is “ X” Then % of
CO2=100-X
8. Operation and Reaction
Step No.4
Now open valve No.3 and proceed as step No.3.Absorption pipette contains alkaline pyraglallol solution which
absorbs O2. Close valve and burette in the same position . Note the reading on burette suppose it is “Y” the O2
content can be calculated is % of
O2=( 100-X)-Y.
If O2 is not detected in gas sample then pass it through the third pipette by operating valve No.2. This
pipette contain ammonium cuprous chloride which absorbed CO gas absorption in pipette is due to the presence of
CO,CO2 can also be absorbed in cuprous solution . The reaction that take place during operation of or set
apparatus are.
2KOH + CO2 K2CO3 + H2O( Potassium Carbonate )

12. Modern analyzers derived from
Orsat apparatus
Based on the Orsat analyzing technique not only flue gases but process gas like methane,
propane ,natural gas & Hydrogen Sulphite can be analyzed continuously in a process flow
streams. Many new Orsat apparatus models are re engineered and modified by electronic and
automation technology so that they do multitask in a process industry. They measure, control
and disengage the process systems. The demand for composition measurement in continuous
flow pipeline even at high temperature and pressures fulfilled by latest engineered models that
are nitrogen analyzer, oxygen analyzer, carbon dioxide analyzer, methane analyzer.
These modules contain a measuring probe, a signal transmitter and receiver, instrument air
sockets, display and controls box. Measuring probes are developed based on the membrane
technology, a thin film membrane allow specific molecules to pass through it and these
molecules will affect the conductivity of the thermocouple type system which give out signal
proportional to the chemical molecules.
