In this study by the University of Utah, Barracuda simulations for a chemical looping with oxygen uncoupling system compared well with literature and data.
The dry reforming of CH4 in a fixed-bed catalytic reactor for the production of hydrogen at different temperatures over supported Ni catalyst is studied in this paper.
In this paper, Clark, Snider, and Spenik compare cold-flow experimental results with Barracuda simulation for a full-loop CFB experimental carbon capture unit constructed at the US DOE National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL).
The rate constant of the CaO–CO2 reaction was studied for two sorbents using an atmospheric thermogravimetric analyzer (ATGA) and a pressurized thermogravimetric analyzer (PTGA). A grain model was used to determine the rate-controlling steps.
A mathematical model taking into account multicomponent (six species) mass balances, overall mass balance, Ergun relation for the pressure drop, energy balance for the bed-volume element including the heat transfer to the column wall, and nonlinear adsorption equilibrium isotherm coupled with three main reactions was derived to model SESMR.
In this paper, intrinsic rate equations were derived for the steam reforming of methane, accompanied by water-gas shift on a Ni/MgAl2O4 catalyst. A large number of detailed reaction mechanisms were considered
