Conversion Limits in the Reaction of CO2 with Lime
J. Carlos Abanades,Diego Alvarez +1 more
TL;DR: The use of calcines of natural limestones as CO2 regenerable sorbents is investigated in this paper by studying the decay of the maximum carbonation conversion during many carbonation/calcination cycles.
Journal ArticleDOI
CO2 Capture Capacity of CaO in Long Series of Carbonation/Calcination Cycles
TL;DR: In this paper, a long series of carbonation/calcination cycles (up to 500) varying different variables affecting sorbent capacity have been tested in a thermogravimetric apparatus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fluidized bed combustion systems integrating CO2 capture with CaO.
TL;DR: A range of process options are found that allow the sorbent utilization to maintain a given level of CO2 separation efficiency, appropriate operating conditions, and sufficiently high power generation efficiencies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Capture of CO2 from combustion gases in a fluidized bed of CaO
TL;DR: In this paper, experiments in a pilot-scale fluidized-bed reactor have been carried out to investigate the carbonation reaction of CaO, as a potential method for CO2 capture from combustion flue gases at high-temperatures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of the Critical Product Layer Thickness in the Reaction of CaO with CO2
Diego Alvarez,J. Carlos Abanades +1 more
TL;DR: The critical thickness of the product layer of CaCO3 has been measured in this work on real sorbent materials, using different limestone precursors and submitting them to many repeated carbonation calcination cycles (up to 100) Mercury porosimetry curves of the calcines and their carbonated counterparts have been obtained and their differences interpreted with a simple pore model, from which the thickness of a product layer is derived as discussed by the authors.
