Extrusion Of Perovskite Oxide/ Silica Composites For Thermochemical Carbon Dioxide Conversion, Qian Li

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

In order to solve the increasing greenhouse effect problem, perovskite-type oxides have been used to convert CO2 to CO in a reverse water-gas shift chemical looping (RWGS-CL) process. Currently, the process is at the micro-reactor scale and used catalyst in powder form. However, formed materials are needed if the scale is to be increased.

Our research focus is on increasing the conversion yield of perovskite oxides with SiO2 support and scaling up the powder form perovskite-type oxides to pellet by extrusion. The binder added during the extrusion process must be removed to avoid affecting the performance of the catalyst and …

Synthesis And Characterization Of LaXBa1-XFeYAl1-YO3, Perovskite Oxides, For Co2 To Co Conversion, Hanzhong Shi

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

As the greenhouse gas effect becomes more serious, it is important to find an effective way to reduce carbon dioxide emissions and/or convert it to value-added products. Based on the catalytic requirements, convert CO₂ to CO using perovskite-type oxides which are suitable for reverse water-gas shift chemical looping (RWGS-CL). The resulting carbon monoxide can be subsequently used for chemical energy storage in the form of hydrocarbon-based fuels and chemicals. This research focuses on the synthesis of the La_xBa_1-xFe_yAl_1-yO₃ perovskite-type oxides, which can form oxygen vacancies, or active sites for CO …
