Abstract: A concept of coal-fired power plant built around a supercritical CO2 Brayton power cycle and 90% post-combustion CO2 capture have been designed. The power cycle has been adapted to the coal-fired boiler thermal output, this boiler has been roughly designed in order to assess the power cycle pressure drop and its cost, an adapted CO2 capture process has been designed and finally the overall heat integration of the power plant has been proposed. Due to the high complexity of such as plant, this paper does not intend to provide definitive evaluation of the concept but to explore its potential.
