CO2 Plant Design

The document provides an energy balance for a CO2 plant. It summarizes: 1) Heat transferred in various components like the caustic scrubber, MEA scrubber, gas cooler, compressor intercooler and aftercooler, and reboiler. 2) Mass flow rates of fluids like CO2, flue gas, caustic solution, MEA, cooling water and steam. 3) Temperature conditions like inlet and outlet temperatures for gases and liquids in different sections of the plant. 4) Key specifications of the second compressor like discharge pressure, temperatures and heat transferred in the aftercooler. 5) Plate heat exchanger design parameters for a capacity of 1100kg
