Title: Combustion method with integrated co sb 2 /sb  separation by means of carbonation
Inventor: ABANADES GARC A JUAN CARLOS
IPC: B01J20/34
Filed: 2003-03-14
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for separating CO 2 
from combustion gases, which can be used at areas with
large emissions (thermal power stations using any
carbonaceous fuel). The separated CO 2  stream can be used
and/or contained in geological formations. The inventive
method aims to reduce the high costs involved in CO 2 
separation which prevent large-scale use of the CO 2 
confinement options included in the UN's IPCC reports.
Said method consists of bringing the combustion gases
into contact with a calcareous sorbent (limestone,
calcined dolomite) at 650-750°C, thereby producing the
CO 2  capture reaction by means of the rapid carbonation of
the sorbent. The sorbent is regenerated in another
reactor (calciner) which operates in CO 2  or CO 2 /H 2 O
atmospheres.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un convertisseur sigma-delta analogique-numérique (10) utilisant le calcul de la moyenne de données pondérées faisant intervenir une DEM (14) afin de sélectionner des éléments d'unités spécifiques d'un convertisseur numérique-analogique à boucle de rétroaction négative (15), dont la DEM (14) est constituée essentiellement de grilles de transmission ayant peu d'effet sur le temps de propagation. Aussi, le signal de rétroaction fourni par la boucle de rétroaction ne représente pas plus d'un cycle d'horloge derrière la sortie codée actuelle du convertisseur analogique-numérique (10). On peut alors réaliser des convertisseurs à résolution plus haute. La DEM (14) utilise une séquence de répétition pour sélectionner des éléments d'unité spécifiques. Dans certains modes de réalisation, la direction d'utilisation de la séquence est inversée de plusieurs manières afin de contribuer à réduire la distorsion harmonique.
