This review aims to give more understanding of the selection and development oxygen carrier materials for chemical looping. Chemical looping, a rising star in technologies, is capable low CO2 emissions with applications production energy chemicals. A key issue further looping processes its introduction industry an appropriate (OC) material. solid material supplies stoichiometric needed various processes. Its reactivity, cost, toxicity, thermal stability, attrition resistance, stability are...
This work highlights the effectiveness of an unconventional synthesis hybrid systems for direct hydrogenation carbon dioxide into dimethyl ether (DME), based on micro-extrusion a ink-like catalytic paste by robocasting procedure. Due to possibility exert fine control over structure, surface and geometric architecture, adopted printing technique really ensures superior management heat mass constraints in respect conventional powdered catalysts, catalyst functionality resulting be tightly...
The high gas–solid slip velocity and the resulting intensified heat mass transfer make vortex reactors (GSVR) a promising reactor technology for oxidative coupling of methane (OCM). short gas residence time solid in GSVR require highly active catalyst with strong attrition resistance. Conventional Sr/La2O3 catalysts possess sufficient activity; however, these materials lack mechanical strength. In this study, novel mechanically is developed by supporting conventional OCM on porous SiC...
Activated carbon sorbents were directly 3D-printed into highly adaptable monolithic/multi-channel systems by using potassium silicate as a low-temperature binder. By employing emerging 3D-printing technologies, monolithic structured printed and fully characterized N2, Ar, CO2-sorption Hg-intrusion porosimetry. The CO2-capture performance the required temperature for active-site regeneration evaluated thermogravimetric analysis-looping experiments. A mechanically stable activated sorbent was...
Abstract SiO2/TiO2 composite sol-gel coatings can be used in many industrial applications for their self-cleaning and photocatalytic properties. In this study, were deposited by spray coating as it allows a better thickness control than dip coating, which is now mostly used. The most critical parameters first determined fractional factorial experimental design TiO2 sol coating. Then, the effect of silica addition combination with hydrophobic precursor on thickness, water contact angle...
CO2 capture technologies are key to the ongoing energy transition towards a low-carbon future. Solid adsorption is promising technology for carbon with potential savings regeneration of material compared liquid absorption. An interesting route electrical swing (ESA). electrically conductive sorbent direct air (DAC) was developed by 3D printing. As an amine based ion-exchange resin selected on its high capacity DAC silver coated glass flakes as additive. Different amount were added study...
3D printed hollow fibre structures are of interest for different separation processes. However, the preparation such using robocasting is not evident due to their poor self-supporting properties after printing. We propose a method based upon non-solvent induced phase inversion overcome this issue, and use preparing porous alumina structures. The uses paste that contains powders, polyetherimide as polymeric binder N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone solvent, extruded through concentric nozzle. A humid...
