Engineers say they’ve found a way to prevent carbon dioxide pollution when burning fossil fuels, a possible stop-gap solution as we move to a renewable energy future. The rest of this article is ...
By Liang-Shih Fan and Elena Chung, Ohio State University Coal plays a big role in America’s energy present and future. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), coal comprises 20 ...
Chemical looping technologies have emerged as a promising strategy to meet the dual challenges of clean hydrogen production and effective carbon dioxide capture. This approach relies on cyclic redox ...
Post-combustion chemical looping uses a calcium looping (CaL) process for CO2 capture. This process has 2 steps: calcination and carbonation. The calciner heats calcium carbonate (CaCO3), thereby ...
Picture a world where burning fossil fuels would not mean emitting greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide into the air, creating pollution. With new technology produced by Ohio State chemical engineers, ...
Alstom has made significant progress in proving the feasibility of the chemical looping concepts, including completing the first self-sustained operation of a chemical looping combustion unit. Photo ...
Ammonia is a promising hydrogen carrier and fertilizer, with growing potential as a low-carbon fuel. However, conventional ...
Traditional techniques of converting fossil fuels for heat and power generation and chemical production increase the carbon ...
The air reactor produces a hot air stream that is used to raise steam to drive a turbine for power generation; the fuel reactor produces gases from which CO2 can be easily captured. The regenerated ...
A promising industrial process can turn crushed sugar cane waste into green hydrogen far more efficiently than previously thought, shows a SECLG process simulation from the University of Johannesburg.
