An acid gas removal plant includes an absorber that provides a rich
solvent to two regenerators that independently generate a lean and a
semi-lean solvent, wherein the semi-lean solvent is produced in one of
the regenerators using heat and/or steam derived from the other
regenerator. Further heat integration is particularly contemplated with
power plants in which the power plant provides high-level heat to the
acid gas removal plant and wherein the power plant receives low-level
heat from the acid gas removal plant.
