  • Publication number: 20220259043
    Abstract: The present application provides a system and a method for water-based chemical-looping hydrogen generation. The method for water-based chemical-looping hydrogen generation comprises a water-based reduction process of oxygen carrier and a water-based oxidation process of oxygen carrier, wherein in the water-based reduction process of oxygen carrier, an oxygen carrier is reduced with a hydrocarbon fuel in the presence of a steam to produce a hydrogen gas as well as a reduced oxygen carrier and a carbon dioxide; and in the water-based oxidation process of oxygen carrier, the reduced oxygen carrier is oxidized with the steam to produce the hydrogen gas, while the reduced oxygen carrier is oxidized to its original state, thereby forming a chemical-looping. The present application can reduce the energy consumption while improving the efficiency of the hydrogen generation, enabling a zero energy consumption separation of carbon dioxide in the hydrogen generation process.

  • Patent number: 5447024
    Abstract: A chemical-looping combustion method uses a metallic oxide (MO) as an oxygen carrier. A fuel (RH) reduces MO at a low temperature in a first reactor, a reduced product (M) is oxidized by oxygen in moistened air in a high-temperature region in a second reactor to form MO which is recycled to the first reactor. Heat generated within these reactors is utilized to drive gas turbines. The reactions within the first and second reactors are:RH+MO.fwdarw.mCO.sub.2 +nH.sub.2 O+M (1)M+0.50.sub.2 .fwdarw.MO (2)Moistened air is the oxygen source in the second reaction. The metallic oxides and their reduced products are particulates including an oxygen permeable medium. The loss of energy in the conversion reactions and in heat exchange is reduced, power generation efficiency is improved, CO.sub.2 is recovered and water resources are saved.
