Abstract
Super-dry reforming is a promising CO2-to-CO conversion process which could become a key enabler of the CO2-to-ethylene value chain, the adoption of which could decrease the carbon footprint of ethylene production by up to 67% compared to conventional routes. At Ghent University’s Laboratory for Chemical Technology, a chemical looping pilot plant was built to investigate the upscaling of super-dry reforming from gram to kilogram scale. In this work, the specifications and initial (non-)reactive operation of this pilot plant is investigated, highlighting the requirements and design characteristics of this pilot plant. The importance of transient behavior in chemical looping fixed bed reactors is reflected in this work’s focus on dynamic pilot plant operation.
