Title: Multi-scale investigation of chemical looping combustion of biomass pellets towards negative CO2 emission

Acronym: MsLimitCO2

Consortium:

Czestochowa University of Technology (CUT), Poland – coordinator on the Polish side
Jan Dlugosz University in Czestochowa (JDU), Poland
Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST), China – coordinator on the Chinese side
Southeast University (SEU), China

Duration: June 1, 2024 – May 31, 2027

Total budget: 1 039 618 €

Agreement No.: WPC3/2022/44/MSLimitCo2/2024

Operators/Founders:

National Centre for Research and Development (NCBR), Poland
Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) of the People’s Republic of China

Programme: 3rd Polish-Chinese/Chinese-Polish Joint Research Programme

Objectives:

The efforts in the collaborative project are focused on the high performance of chemical looping combustion (CLC) systems in general, which can be achieved by improving the efficiency of both fuel combustion and CO2 capture. Therefore, an innovative design of a reactor for the chemical looping combustion of solid fuels will be developed as well as novel oxygen carriers tailored particularly to biomass fuels will be prepared and tested. The research activities in the project include both experimental investigations and numerical simulations and hence the entire work is divided into eight complementary workpackages (WP). Polish teams are responsible for the implementation of WPs 1-5, whereas Chinese teams undertake WPs 6-8.
