Analysis of Reactors Simulation Models used in Combustion with Chemical Looping Combustion (CLC) as an Alternative and Potencial for Integration in Industrial Processes
Main Article Content
Abstract
Chemical Looping Combustion (CLC) is an emerging technology that enables energy generation with inherent CO₂ capture, positioning itself as a sustainable alternative to conventional methods. This study evaluates reactor simulation models ranging from equilibrium-based approaches to kinetic models implemented in software such as ANSYS Fluent and COMSOL Multiphysics. Key applications include power generation, hydrogen production, and fossil fuel processing, alongside challenges such as material selection, cost reduction, and adaptability to diverse feedstocks. The manganese minerals OXMN009 and OXMN009P demonstrate high efficiency, confirming that the optimization of models and materials is crucial for the industrial viability of CLC.
