Abstract
Climate changes, carbon depletion, greenhouse emissions and worldwide raising energy demand are becoming increasingly important problems. This opens the door to innovative and green pathways for electric/thermal power and fuels production. In the present study, a polygeneration plant integrated with a chemical looping fed by concentrated solar power for the production of electricity, heat, dimethyl-ether, methanol and syngas is analysed and discussed. The prime mover of the plant is the two-step chemical looping, operating at 1.2 bar and 900°C. The redox pair CeO2/Ce2O3 coupled with biomethane partial oxidation is chosen for its manifested advantages compared to other materials. The reduction reaction is endothermic, heat is provided by concentrated solar energy.
The prime mover produces the fuel for the secondary devices of the plant: a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (supplied by the syngas obtained in the reduction reaction) and a DME synthesis and distillation unit (supplied by the syngas obtained in the oxidation reaction)
