Abstract

Carbon dioxide is recovered from an exhaust gas in the form of liquid carbon dioxide or supercritical carbon dioxide utilizing a rotary separator. Nitrogen gas recovered from the rotary separator can be expanded to provide cooling for carbon dioxide in a closed-loop CO2 power cycle that is used to cool the exhaust gas upstream of the rotary separator. The recovery can power itself and can produce excess electricity from waste heat.
