Thermodynamic analysis of using chemical-looping combustion in Allam-Z cycle instead of common combustion

Zhiyuan Liu et al.

Summary: The paper introduces a modified CLC-Allam cycle, which has a higher electric efficiency compared to the original Allam-Z cycle. Cupric oxide is identified as the best oxygen carrier among the metallic oxides investigated, providing the highest fuel conversion in SCO2 atmosphere. Parametric sensitivity analysis reveals that the inlet temperature and isentropic efficiency of CO2 pump have little impact on cycle efficiency, while the turbine and compressor efficiency significantly influence electric efficiency.

Energy, exergy, exergoeconomic and exergoenvironmental analysis on a novel parallel double-effect absorption power cycle driven by the geothermal resource

Feng Zhang et al.

Summary: This paper proposes a novel parallel double-effect absorption power cycle using lithium bromide-water solution to make better use of geothermal energy. The comprehensive energy, exergy, exergoeconomic and exergoenvironmental models of this system are developed, and comparative studies on the performance of this system and traditional absorption power cycle are conducted. The results show that the proposed system can enhance net power output, exergy efficiency, and reduce cost, with slight increase in environmental impact. The absorber and low-temperature generator are identified as the components with highest exergy destruction and loss rate. Improving the performance of the proposed system can be achieved by adjusting certain operation conditions.

Transformation and Migrant Mechanism of Sulfur and Nitrogen during Chemical Looping Combustion with CuFe2O4

Haichuan Li et al.

Summary: Chemical looping combustion (CLC) is a key technology for CO2 capture. The migration and transformation behaviors of sulfur and nitrogen are similar when different oxygen carrier (OC) particles are used in coal CLC. The release characteristics of SO2 and NO show a basic trend of rising first and then falling down. The increase in reaction temperature and oxygen-to-carbon ratio (O/C) can enhance sulfur and nitrogen release, but inhibit metal sulfide formation.
