To maintain a global zero-emission policy and a high standard of living, new energy systems with higher system efficiency and net zero-emission productions need to be designed and deployed. This paper describes a novel integrated system between a direct-fired supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO2) power system with hydrogen and oxygen for zero-emission power generation and storage. sCO2 power cycles offer higher thermodynamic efficiencies than conventional gas-fired Brayton cycles. Heat is added to the system from the combustion of hydrogen and oxygen. The system consists of an electrolyzer unit and two cryogenic storage systems for hydrogen and oxygen. The proposed system is designed as a medium/long-term battery that can use excess electricity from the grid to produce hydrogen (electrolyzer) and supply to the grid (hydrogen combustion) in times of higher demand. Nitrous oxide emissions are mitigated by oxy-combustion and water separation from the post-combustion products allows for a closed-loop water cycle. The optimization of cycle parameters suggests a turbine inlet temperature of 1473 K and a pressure of 30 MPa for a specific net power output of 348 kJ/kg electrical. This results in an H2-sCO2 direct-fired power cycle efficiency of around 53 % with an overall system round-trip efficiency of up to 35 %. |
