Energy and exergy pertaining to solid looping cycles

Abstract This chapter describes why calcium looping and chemical looping combustion technologies are more efficient than their rivals, particularly when the aim is to produce a stream of CO2 for storage or utilization. The focus is on causes of inefficiency, and the development of solid looping cycle energy and exergy analyses as key tools to achieving designs with low efficiency penalties. The chapter concludes with a discussion of other CO2 capture technologies, and makes comparisons to highlight the advantages of solid looping processes. Future trends, especially in advanced process layouts of solid looping cycles, are also summarized.
