Abstract: A method and apparatus for treatment of unburnts utilizing oxygen carrier particles, which may be CLOU particles, oxidized in an air reactor and transmitted to a post oxidation reactor as shown in FIG. 2. A flue gas stream containing unburnts is injected into post oxidation reactor wherein unburnts are oxidized by oxygen supplied by oxygen carriers. Reduced oxygen carriers are separated from post oxidation reactor and transmitted back to air reactor for re-oxidation. An embodiment may include a post oxidation chamber, which may be catalytic, receiving a portion of flue gas stream and oxygen from a flue gas stream of post oxidation reactor.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for treatment of unburnts in a flue stream 9 of a chemical looping combustion system. Unburnts present in the flue stream 9 are treated after CO2 is removed from the flue stream in a gas processing unit 13. As shown in FIG. 2, oxidation of the unburnts occurs primarily in an air reactor 2 in the presence of air 1, allowing the system to maintain CO2 capture effectiveness and removing the need for creation of enriched or pure oxygen 11.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system comprising an air reactor; where the air reactor is operative to oxidize metal oxide particles with oxygen from air to form oxidized metal oxide particles; a fuel reactor; where the fuel reactor is operative to release the oxygen from the oxidized metal oxide particles and to react this oxygen with fuel and steam to form syngas; a water gas shift reactor located downstream of the fuel reactor; where the water gas shift reactor is operative to convert syngas to a mixture of carbon and hydrogen; a combustor; and a gas turbine; the combustor being operative to combust the hydrogen and discharge flue gases derived from the combustion of hydrogen to drive the turbine; where the exhaust from the turbine is carbon free.
