System and method for recovering turbine system extractions

Abstract:

An embodiment includes a power production system having a compressor system compressing a fluid. The system further includes a combustor system combusting compressed fluid and a fuel. The system additionally includes a turbine system configured produce power and an exhaust stream and a first exhaust processing system fluidly coupled to the turbine system and configured to receive the exhaust stream. The system also includes a first bleed system fluidly coupled to a first location in the compressor system, to a second location downstream of the compressor system and upstream of the first exhaust processing system, to a third location in the first exhaust processing system, to a fourth location downstream of the first exhaust processing system, or a combination thereof, and configured to redirect a first compressor extraction from the first location to the second location, to the third location, to the fourth location, or to the combination thereof.
