ABSTRACT

Six rules are proposed that should be followed to achieve optimal post combustion CO2 capture

system performance in power plant applications. Although the rules appear uncontroversial, many

previous studies have not followed them all. This should be taken into consideration when making

an assessment of the likely current performance for power plants with post combustion capture.

The rules are discussed and examples given of the benefits that may accrue from following them.

The paper concludes with a discussion of the implications for future post combustion capture

applications and suggestions for areas where additional work is required.
