Heterogeneous, multi-component materials such as industrial tailings or by-products, along with naturally occurring materials, such as ores, have been intensively investigated as candidate oxygen carriers for chemical-looping ...

Calcium Looping (CaL) technology has become one of the most attractive ways to capture CO2 from fossil fuel power plants. However, with increasing numbers of cyclic reactions, the CO2 capture capacity rapidly decreases. ...

The deployment of greenhouse gas removal (GGR) technologies has been identified as an indispensable option in meeting the warming target of 1.5 °C by the end of the century. Despite the importance of this pathway, the ...

Incineration of sludge can be an effective method to minimise waste whilst producing useful heat. However, incineration can cause secondary pollution issues due to the emission of SO2, therefore a set of experiments of ...

Energy storage is one of the most critical factors for maximising the availability of renewable energy systems while delivering firm capacity on an as- and when-required basis, thus improving the balance of grid energy. ...

To alleviate the pressing problem of greenhouse gas emissions, the development and deployment of sustainable energy technologies is necessary. One potentially viable approach for replacing fossil fuels is the development ...

There is a risk of heavy metal emission during solid waste incineration, and the capture of gaseous semi-volatile metal by mineral sorbents is an effective method for its pollution control. As a cheap and common additive ...

Carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) will play a critical role in future decarbonisation efforts to meet the Paris Agreement targets and mitigate the worst effects of climate change. Whilst there are many well ...

The catalytic activity of bimetallic catalysts for the steam methane reforming (SMR) reaction was extensively studied previously. However, the performance of these materials in the presence of sulfur-containing species is ...

The performance of combined CO2-sorbent/catalyst particles for sorption enhanced steam reforming (SESR), prepared via a simple mechanical mixing protocol, was studied using a spout-fluidised bed reactor capable of continuous ...
