Most of the water for the Bosch processes comes from carbon dioxide as it is processed through the Bosch reactor. The co-electrolysis integrated Boudouard and hydrogenation processes have the lowest power usage to process 1 kg/s of carbon dioxide. However, they also have the lowest oxygen production. Both of these processes have no incoming water. Table 6.

The hydrogenation reactor produces water that passes through the electrolysis unit with the carbon dioxide. Compression power requirements are low for all the Sabatier processes as well as the Boudouard and hydrogenation processes. Heat exchanger duties are highest with the Bosch processes due to the higher temperatures within the reactors. The co-electrolysis integrated Boudouard and hydrogenation processes have no condensers. It is interesting to note that the co-electrolysis integrated Sabatier process requires more power than the base Sabatier process to convert 1kg/s of carbon dioxide, because the water requirement is higher. Carbon Balance A carbon balance was performed to determine where the carbon goes with each process. A constant oxygen production and a constant carbon dioxide processing analysis were performed and the results are listed in Tables 7 and 8. For the Bosch processes and the co-electrolysis integrated Boudouard and hydrogenation processes, the carbon exits as a solid. With the Sabatier processes, carbon exits the reactor, primarily as methane. The Sabatier with default electrolysis has also some carbon exit as carbon dioxide. When the inlet with the outlet mole balances are compared, all cases balance well except the Bosch. Some water was added to these cases to produce additional hydrogen for the Bosch processes. However, a means to remove the hydrogen after the process was not provided which cause an unbalanced mass inventory. The water flow in for these cases was small and therefore difference is mass is small. When looking at the case with constant carbon dioxide flow, the difference is more pronounced. 22 American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics
