Flexible chemical looping combustion for combined heat and power production from biogenic residues with negative emission (Bio-FlexCLC)

The Bio-FlexCLC project develops and demonstrates a novel flexible technology for CHP plants at TRL 5 to utilize low-value biogenic residues as feedstock for heat and power production with negative CO2 emissions. Bio-FlexCLC combines the break-through chemical-looping combustion (CLC) technology with conventional circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boilers. The concept is flexible to switch between CLC CFB modes. Bio- FlexCLC operating in CLC mode has inherent CO2 capture at a low cost and without energy penalty. Bio-FlexCLC utilizes biogenic residues and wastes, improves conversion efficiencies, achieves negative CO2 emissions, reduces SOx and NOx emissions, enhances CO2 capture efficiency at a considerably reduced cost, has flexibility towards load demand fluctuations, and the capacity to switch to CFB combustion if market conditions are not amiable for carbon capture or if there is difficulty in the operation to decreases the risk of implement.

Development of Chemical Looping Gasification of microalgae for the 3rd-Generation BioFuels production (CLG-G3BioF)

CLG-G3BioF stands on the  EU’s ambitious goals for climate neutrality and a circular economy, and aims at clean and low-carbon utilization of microalgae residue with a very promising CCS technology, called Chemical Looping Gasification (CLG).  The project dedicates to the development of the third-generation biofuels (G3BioF) production through the CLG of microalgae and at the same time contributing to EU’s commitment to achieve climate neutrality in 2050. 

Project’s goals

Through the project, the applicant will progress as a scientist and gain skills of LCA, complex pilot operation, tar analysis. Together with the supervisor and the host institution, this project is ambitious for a much greener production of biofuels and the results are important to power a sustainable future.
