Abstract

To obtain a deeper understanding of the mass transfer between MgO-based sorbent particles and gaseous reactants (CO2), it is essential to investigate the mass transfer characteristics of a single moving sorbent particle since most previous researches focused on the removal efficiency of the whole flow field and ignored the behavior of individual particles. Currently, most studies assumed that the reactant (CO2) concentration across the particle surface is uniform based on the average concentration within the grid, while the reactant concentration on the particle surface changes as the particle moves. In this study, the gas-solid mass transfer between CO2 and a moving MgO-based particle was investigated. The results indicated that the motion state and velocity of the particles significantly impact the CO2 removal dynamics and noticeable differences in the CO2 concentration gradient could be observed around the particle. Increasing the reaction temperature, enhancing the CO2 mass fraction at the inlet, appropriately increasing the gas velocity, and selecting an appropriate particle size can significantly enhance the reaction rate, thereby improving the CO2 removal efficiency. The correction formula for surface CO2 concentration and mass transfer reaction rate was also proposed based on the particle's velocity and direction of movement. Based on the correction formula, more detailed guidance for optimizing reactor design could be obtained and the findings provide theoretical guide for designing CO2 removal reactors.

期刊介绍: The word ‘particuology’ was coined to parallel the discipline for the science and technology of particles. Particuology is an interdisciplinary journal that publishes frontier research articles and critical reviews on the discovery, formulation and engineering of particulate materials, processes and systems. It especially welcomes contributions utilising advanced theoretical, modelling and measurement methods to enable the discovery and creation of new particulate materials, and the manufacturing of functional particulate-based products, such as sensors. Papers are handled by Thematic Editors who oversee contributions from specific subject fields. These fields are classified into: Particle Synthesis and Modification; Particle Characterization and Measurement; Granular Systems and Bulk Solids Technology; Fluidization and Particle-Fluid Systems; Aerosols; and Applications of Particle Technology. Key topics concerning the creation and processing of particulates include: -Modelling and simulation of particle formation, collective behaviour of particles and systems for particle production over a broad spectrum of length scales -Mining of experimental data for particle synthesis and surface properties to facilitate the creation of new materials and processes -Particle design and preparation including controlled response and sensing functionalities in formation, delivery systems and biological systems, etc. -Experimental and computational methods for visualization and analysis of particulate system. These topics are broadly relevant to the production of materials, pharmaceuticals and food, and to the conversion of energy resources to fuels and protection of the environment.
