Abstract
The present disclosure generally relates in certain embodiments to a combined cycle power plant system comprising an electrochemical compressor. For instance, in one set of embodiments, the electrochemical compressor is may separate oxygen from a flow of air from an air source to provide a pressurized flow of oxygen to a combustor. In some embodiments, the resulting combustion products may only include oxygen and water without any substantial fraction of other combustion products or contaminants which may facilitate the separation of carbon dioxide (CO) for subsequent processes including compression and/or storage.
