Chemical-Looping Combustion and Gasification of Coals and Oxygen Carrier Development: A Brief Review
Chemical-looping technology is one of the promising CO2 capture technologies. It generates a CO2 enriched flue gas, which will greatly benefit CO2 capture, utilization or sequestration. Both chemical-looping combustion (CLC) and chemical-looping gasification (CLG) have the potential to be used to generate power, chemicals, and liquid fuels. Chemical-looping is an oxygen transporting process usi...
Mercury emissions from coal-fired electric generating utilities are a major uncontrolled source of mercury in the environment. This mercury may be contributing to serious health problems in segments of our society. The USGS is compiling information on mercury in coal that may be useful in developing strategies for reducing mercury emissions from coal use. The USGS coal-quality database contains...
In October, 2006, 19 scientists from eight countries met at the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) in Lyon, France, to assess the carcinogenicity of household solid fuel combustion (coal and biomass) and of high-temperature frying. These assessments will be published as volume 95 of the IARC Monographs. About half of the world’s population, mostly in low-resource and mediumresou...
Three alternative condensing mode power and combined heat and power (CHP) waste-to-energy concepts were compared in terms of their impacts on the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from a heat and power generation system. The concepts included (i) grate, (ii) bubbling fluidised bed (BFB) and (iii) circulating fluidised bed (CFB) combustion of waste. The BFB and CFB take advantage of advanced combus...
Heightened concerns over the amount of carbon emitted from coal-related processes are generating shifts to the application of biomass. In co-gasification, where coal is gasified along with biomass, the biomass may be fed together with coal (cofeeding) or an independent biomass gasifier needs to be integrated with the coal gasifier. The main aim of this work is to evaluate the biomass introducti...
The practice of cofiring biomass in full-scale coal utility plants is increasing, due to the benefits of reduced fossil fuel based CO2 emissions. Biomass also tends to have a lower sulphur content than coal and therefore emissions of SO2 can be reduced. The same is true for NOx emissions from lower fuel nitrogen content. Further, the lower flame temperatures and different combustion stoichiomet...
In order to solve the simulation problem of steady compressible turbulent combustion, a small scale high performance parallel cluster system was designed. It based on the open source CFD platform OpenFOAM, and was used to to simulate the bluff-body stabilized Sydney flame hm1 which refers to the detailed chemical kinetic mechanisms of coal gas and air combustion reaction. The flow of combustion...
This report is in two sections: the first describes the flue gas and its treatment in post-combustion capture and the second covers the flue gas in oxyfuel combustion capture. The main components of the flue gas in pulverised coal combustion for postcombustion capture are CO2, N2, O2 and H2O, and air pollutants such as SOx, NOx, particulates, HCl, HF, mercury as well as other contaminants. The ...
Coal is a major energy source, and on the other hand coal is a source of pollution. Some of the important environmental issues related to use of coal in energy production are the release of sulphur dioxide (SO2). SO2 is a precursor to acid rain, responsible for atmospheric pollution and damage to human health. Therefore, investigations and development of technologies promising low SO2 emission ...
BACKGROUND Domestic fuel combustion from cooking and heating is an important public health issue because roughly 3 billion people are exposed worldwide. Recently, the International Agency for Research on Cancer classified indoor emissions from household coal combustion as a human carcinogen (group 1) and from biomass fuel (primarily wood) as a probable human carcinogen (group 2A). OBJECTIVES ...
