Prashant Goura , Ranjit Nikoseb Abstract This article reviews the use of Molten Carbonate Fuel Cells (MCFC) in a natural gas or coal based power plant to capture CO2 from the exhaust of the gas turbine having an anode and a cathode section. In this, cathode section of Molten Carbonate Fuel Cells (MCFC) intakes the flue gases of gas turbine. Then CO2 is moved from the cathode to anode side, concentrating the CO2 in the anode exhaust. A steam generator is used then to recover the heat from this concentrating CO2 stream and sent to a cryogenic CO2 removal section. This arrangement ultimately show the potential to achieve a high carbon capture ratio, while taking the advantage from the introduction of the fuel cell, the power output increases and ultimately reduces the emission of major greenhouse gas Less
