Claim:
1. A calciner system to deliver enhancing fluid comprising CO2, comprising: a calciner with a pressure vessel with a refractory insulating lining, having in descending sequence, a sideflow pressurizer operable to receive and repressurize preheated sideflow calciner fluid from the fluid outtake manifold and deliver heated sideflow calciner fluid to the fluid intake manifold; a recirculating pressurizer operable to receive and repressurize and recirculate outlet calciner fluid, from the fluid outlet manifold and deliver it to the fluid inlet manifold; a delivery pressurizer operable to pressurize and deliver enhancing fluid comprising CO2 formed by calcining from the fluid outlet manifold; a fuel delivery system having a fuel pressurizer operable to deliver pressurized fuel fluid comprising a fuel; an oxidant delivery system having an oxidant pressurizer operable to deliver pressurized oxidant fluid comprising an oxidant; a combustor operable to receive, mix, and combust fuel fluid and oxidant fluid, thereby forming a combustion fluid; one of a regenerative refractory heat exchanger and a recuperative refractory heat exchanger, in fluid communication with the combustor and configured to exchange heat between the combustion fluid and the sideflow calciner fluid, in serial fluid communication with the fluid outtake manifold, the sideflow pressurizer, and the fluid intake manifold; a plurality of process fluid monitors to monitor a multiplicity of combustor, refractory heat exchanger, and calciner fluids; and a controller operable to monitor the plurality of process fluid monitors and to control a plurality of fluid pressurizers, a heated sideflow calciner fluid temperature, and one of the feeder and the discharger; wherein the calcining system is operable to combust fuel, calcine crushed carbonate, discharge alkaline oxide, and deliver a pressurized enhancing fluid comprising CO2 formed thereby.
