1. A bottoming cycle power system comprising:
a turbo-expander operable to rotate a turbo-crankshaft as a flow of exhaust gas from a combustion process passes through the turbo-expander, and
a turbo-compressor operable to compress the flow of exhaust gas after the exhaust gas passes through the turbo-expander; and
an open cycle absorption chiller system comprising:
an absorber section operable to receive the flow of exhaust gas from the turbo-expander and to mix the flow of exhaust gas with a first refrigerant solution within the absorber section, the first refrigerant solution operable to absorb water from the exhaust gas as the exhaust gas passes through the first refrigerant solution, and the absorber section operable to route the flow of exhaust gas to the turbo-compressor after the flow of exhaust gas has passed through the first refrigerant solution.
