[REPORT SUMMARY] Mid-Term Report Summary - NOCO2 (Novel combustion principle with inherent capture of CO2
using combined manganese oxides that release oxygen)
Conventional CO2 capture processes have large costs associated with gas separation. Chemical-looping combustion (CLC), a new combustion principle, avoids this entirely by using metal oxides to carry oxygen from air to the fuel. In this project, novel manganese based oxygen...
