Presentation Overview Review of Proposing a method of hydrogen production via CaO sorption enhanced anaerobic gasification of sawdust in a bubbling fluidised bed. Long Han, Qinhui Wang*, Yukun Yang, Chunjiang Yu, Mengxiang Fang, Zhongyang Luo, International Journal of Hydrogen Energy 36 (2011) 4820-4829
Established Main Process Presentation Overview CO2 gas #1.CaCO3+other gases + deactivated CaO Calcination CaCO3 ->CaO Gasification -Produce H2 rich syngas -Vary Ops Parameters & Feed Ratios Waste Ash/Tar #2 Convert Bottom Ash/Char into CaO CaO Steam Ash #3 Fresh CaO -From dolomite/ calcite/limestone? Biomass -Type of Biomass
Theoretical Background-Fluidised Bed • Feedstock rapidly mixed well with the bed material and quickly heated up to uniform fluidised bed zone T0C-> Good solid-gas mixing, excellent heat transfer, high reaction rates • No distinct reaction zones unlike fixed bed. Easy to control uniform T0C & operate reactor. • Can handle variety of feedstock composition, can use catalysts • Low tar production & excellent scale-up potential
Summary of Research Paper Propose the use of hydrogen as fuel • Current methods of manufacturing Hydrogen • Steam Methane Reforming • Propose the of fluidised bed reactor industrially • Observe the yield of Hydrogen when conditions were varied • Increasing CaO to Carbon Ratio • Increasing Steam to Carbon Ratio • Increasing Temperature

Challenges + Improvements CaO Deactivation Particle Attrition Wastage of CaCO3
Chemical Looping Gasification Chemical Looping Gasification Gasifier (Carbonation): CaO + CO2 ->CaCO3 Regenerator (Calcination): CaCO3 ->CaO + CO2
Calcination through CuO Reduction with Methane CuO added into gasification process Exothermic reduction provides heat for calcination CaO and CuO retain good stability
Sol-Gel Enhancement of Particles CaCO3 has a low Tammann Temperature → Sintering Produce materials supported on High Tammann Temperature substances Higher CO2 uptake
CLG is still not perfect... High Temperature → High Cost of Production Complex → High Cost of Production Undesirable Ca(OH)2 formed There is still potential for CaO to be explored!
