Biomass direct-fired power plant integrated with carbon capture system can achieve negative CO2 emission during the power generation, which provides an important technology pathway for the transformation of energy system towards carbon neutrality. Understanding the economic competitiveness and CO2 reduction potential of the plant, and identifying the optimal operating mode are the key to fully exert the advantages of the technology. For this reason, this paper develops life cycle economic and CO2 emission assessment models for the biomass direct-fired circulating fluidized bed boiler power plant integrated with solvent-based post-combustion carbon capture system.
