Abstract
Carbon dioxide is separated from a flue gas produced in a combustion plant. Flue gas is supplied to a membrane unit having at least one membrane module provided with a membrane that is selective for CO. A portion of the COis separated from the flue gas in the module, producing a CO-enriched permeate. CO-depleted flue gas remaining on the retentate side of the module is supplied to at least one additional COseparating unit and a portion of the COin the retentate is separated by an absorbent. The result is a reduction in energy consumption.
