Cost-effective clean ammonia production using membrane-assisted autothermal reforming
Ammonia is a widely produced industrial chemical, primarily for use in the fertilizer industry. Recently, interest has also grown in ammonia as a carbon-free energy carrier because it is easier to store and transport than hydrogen. However, ammonia is primarily produced from natural gas with a...
Integration of gas switching combustion and membrane reactors for exceeding 50% efficiency in flexible IGCC plants with near-zero CO2 emissions
Integration of gas switching combustion in a humid air turbine cycle for flexible power production from solid fuels with near‐zero emissions of CO2 and other pollutants
This work presents a novel plant configuration for power production from solid fuels with integrated CO2 capture. Specifically, the Gas Switching Combustion (GSC) system is integrated with a Humid Air Turbine (HAT) power cycle and a slurry fed entrained flow (GE‐Texaco) gasifier or a dry fed (Shell...
Exergy Analysis of Gas Switching Chemical Looping IGCC Plants
Integrated gasification combined cycles (IGCC) are promising power production systems from solid fuels due to their high efficiency and good environmental performance. Chemical looping combustion (CLC) is an effective route to reduce the energy penalty associated with CO2 capture. This concept...
