Abstract

In order to investigate the re-carbonation behaviors of limestones in an oxy-circulating fluidized bed com-bustor (Oxy-CFBC), the re-carbonation characteristics of domestic 4 different limestone samples were analyzed in a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA-N1000) with the higher concentration of CO2. Effect of reaction temperature (600~900 oC) and CaCO3 content (77~95%) of limestones were determined and the mass change of the CaO was observed. Under the temperature of 800 oC, the conversion rate increased with increasing reaction temperature. However, the conversion rate decreased with increasing reaction temperature over 800 oC. In the case of CaCO3 content, the conversion was remarkably different at 870 oC. In addition, reaction rate equations for simulating the re-carbonation of limestone by using gas solid reaction models were proposed in this study.
