Abstract
A combustion system includes a topping cycle that generates a flow of exhaust gas, a bottoming cycle, and a fuel cell. The fuel cell includes an anode side, a cathode side, and an electrolyte. The cathode side receives the flow of exhaust gas from the topping cycle via a cathode inlet line. The cathode side removes a first portion of pollutants from the exhaust gas. A heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) receives the exhaust gases from the cathode side via a cathode outlet line, and the HRSG generates a flow of steam for use in the bottoming cycle. A bypass line extends from the cathode inlet line to the cathode outlet line. The combustion system further includes a carbon capture system that is fluidly coupled to the HRSG via an HRSG outlet line. The carbon capture system removes a second portion of pollutants from the exhaust gas.
