ABSTRACT
Chemical Looping Combustion (CLC) is an innovative combustion process developed for CO2 capture. The paper presents a CLC reactor concept based on a monolith rotating reactor. To help process design and to evaluate CLC efficiency for gas turbine applications, lab experiments were performed and a numerical simulator was build. The paper discusses the experiments and the knowledge derived from the lab and simulator comparisons in terms of coking, chemical reactions and kinetics equations. This first technical evaluation of the proposed technology is positive but highlights hard points of the process like monolith maximum temperature and methane conversion.
