Improving Biomass Conversion in Chemical Looping Combustion

Chemical looping combustion (CLC) is a promising combustion technology that enables inherent CO2 capture, but the release of volatile species during biomass devolatilization can lead to gas bypassing and incomplete fuel conversion.  To tackle this, Nasrin Nemati and her research team investigate the influence of two random packing materials—stainless-steel thread saddle rings (RMSR) and expanded …
