11 Usingtheexemplaryconditionsspeci?ed,inputgasstream 202 enters capture reactor 203 at the ?rst temperature of approximately150°C.andthe?rstCO2 pressureofapproxi mately 109 psig and contacts Zeolite sorbent 204 at the ?rst temperature. Zeolite sorbent 204 adsorbs substantially al CO2 andH20,andCO2 depletedgasstream205comprisedof H2 exitscapturereactor203 atthe?rsttemperatureandatotal pressure of 280 psig. In a particular embodiment, CO2 depletedgasstream203 exitstoanIGCC burningH2 forthe production of steam at a temperature of 550° C. Under the exemplary conditions speci?ed, When Zeolite 13X isutiliZedasZeolitesorbent204 inthecapturereactor, the Zeolite 13X sorbent has a CO2 capture capacity of approximately 3.0 mol/kg and an H2O capture capacity of approximately 1.11 mol/kg. The heat of adsorption is approximately 35 kJ/mol CO2 and 15.5 kJ/mol H2O. The exothermicheatgeneratedbyadsorptioninthecapturereac tor is removed by ?rst heat transfer Ql through an indirect heatexchangerfacilitatingheattransferfromZeolitesorbent 204 and capture reactor 203 to 25° C. cooling Water. 20 12 cooledbyheatexchanger219toathirdtemperaturelessthan thesecondtemperature.IntheparticularembodimentshoWn, output gas stream 208 is cooled to approximately 76° C. through indirect heat exchange With 25° C. cooling Water. This serves to condense moisture in output gas stream 208 for subsequent removal by moisture removing means 211, as Well as reduce compressor Work loads for any subsequent compression operations Which may exist as subsequent requirements. In a particular embodiment utiliZing Zeolite 13X, an input gasstreamof39mol% CO2,54mol% H2,and7mol% H2O, a ?rst temperature of 150° C., and a ?rst CO2 pressure of approximately 109 psig in capture reactor 203, With regen eration in regeneration reactor 206 at a second temperature of 350° C. and a second CO2 pressure of approximately 271 psig, output gas stream 208 exits regeneration reactor 206 Withacompositionof96.7mol% CO2and3.3mol% H2O. Following cooling by heat exchanger 219 and H20 removal by moisture removing means 211, output gas stream 208 has acompositionof98.0mol% CO2and2.0mol% H2O.

In the embodiment illustrated at FIG. 2, regeneration gas stream 209 is then heated by a heat transfer O3 in heat exchanger 214 to match or approach the second temperature conditioninregenerationreactor206,andrecirculatedto regenerationreactor206tomaintaintheCO2 atmospherein regeneration reactor 206. In the embodiment shoWn, heat exchanger 214 facilitates heat transfer Q3 as an indirect heat exchange from Water at a temperature greater than the third temperaturetoregenerationgasstream209.

Transport of the unloaded Zeolite sorbent via transport paths 215 and 217 may be accomplished similarly to the means employed for transport path 212.
