A circulating fluidized bed steam generator 10 and a method for operating the circulating fluidized bed steam generator are provided which offer the flexibility to use carbon dioxide (CO2) both as a desirable end product and as support to the combustion process. The method includes the step of introducing a substantially pure oxygen feed stream into the circulating fluidized bed steam generator 10 and the step of combusting a fuel in the presence of the substantially pure oxygen feed stream to produce a flue gas having carbon dioxide and water vapor as its two largest constituent elements by volume. The method also includes the step of passing the flue gas through an oxygen feed stream pre-heater 144 at which heat from the flue gas is transferred to the oxygen feed stream. Furthermore the method includes the step of separating the flue gas into an end product portion and a recycling portion. The method additionally includes cooling and compressing the end product portion of the flue gas so as to yield carbon dioxide in a liquid phase and directing the recycling portion of the flue gas to the circulating fluidized bed steam generator 10 to contribute to the combustion process therein.
