Evaluation of syngas-based chemical looping applications for hydrogen and power co-generation with CCS

This paper evaluates hydrogen and power co-generation based on coal-gasification fitted with an iron-based chemical looping system for carbon capture and storage (CCS). The paper assess in details the whole hydrogen and power co-production chain based on coal gasification. Investigated plant concepts of syngas-based chemical looping generate about 350–450 MW net electricity with a flexible output of 0–200 MW_th hydrogen (based on lower heating value) with an almost total decarbonisation rate of the coal used.
