Study of CaO Carbonation for CO2 Capture Process

Oct 18, 2011
Loïc Favergeon
Anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions, major contributors to the greenhouse effect, are considered as the main cause of global warming. So, decrease of CO 2 emitted by large industrial combustion sources or power plants, is an important scientific goal. One of the approaches is based on CO...

Johannes Voelkl
The separation of CO 2 is an important topic in thermal separation science. The scrubbing of carbon dioxide from exhaust gases has gained more interest in the last years to reduce the emissions of green for counteracting global warming but is also an important process step in biogas upgrade to...

Investigation of CuO-Based Oxygen Carriers As CLOU Materials for Solid Fuels

Oct 17, 2011
Mehdi Arjmand
Chemical-looping combustion (CLC) is a promising combustion technique with efficient CO 2 -capture at low cost due to inherent gas separation. In a CLC process, a metal oxide is circulated between two reactors, wherein they undergo changes from an oxidized form in the air reactor to a reduced one...
