In this work, hydrogen generation with inherent CO2 capture in single packed bed reactor via this concept was discussed. Two oxygen carriers, Fe203 60 wt.% and Fe2O3 55 wt.%/CuO 5 wt.% supported by Al2O3, were made by ball milling method. First, according to the characteristics of the reduction breakthrough curve, a strict fuel supply strategy was selected to achieve simultaneous CO2 capture and HE production. Then, in the long term tests using CO as fuel, it was proved that CuO addition improved hydrogen generation with the maximum intensity of 3700 μmol H2·g^-1 Fe2O3 compared with Fe-Al of 2300 μmol HE.g^-1 Fe2O3. The overall CO2 capture efficiency remained 98%- 98.8% over 100 cycles. Moreover, the reactivity of deactivated materials was recovered nearly like that of fresh ones by sintering treatment. Finally, two kinds of complex gases consist of CO, HE, CH4 and CO2 were utilized as fuels to test the feasibility. The results showed all components could be completely converted by Fe-Cu- Al in the reduction stage. The intensity of hydrogen production and the overall CO2 capture efficiency were in the range of 2000-2400 μnol H2^g^-1 Fe2O3 and 89%, 95%, respectively.展开更多
