Abstract
A method for flue gas treatment includes branching part of a flue gas stream emitted from a gas turbine from an upstream side or a downstream side of an exhaust heat recovery boiler and subjecting the branched part to combustion with a fuel in an auxiliary boiler so as to increase carbon dioxide concentration in the branched part prior to recombining the flue gas stream from the auxiliary boiler with the remaining part of the flue gas stream from the gas turbine to form a combined flue gas stream having a carbon dioxide concentration for efficient recovery in a carbon dioxide recovery apparatus.
