Considering the energy storage capacity and the attrition behavior, the carbonation of the limestone for CaL energy storage operated under 100% CO 2 at the fluidization velocity of 0.06 m/s is more feasible. Fig. 14 presents the energy storage performance of the limestone carbonated at Ucarb = 0.06 m/s during 20 CaO/CaCO 3 cycles.
The limestone carbonated at higher Ucarb exhibits larger pore volume, especially in the range of 10–100 nm, which are beneficial for the superior performance during CaL energy storage cycles. The fluidized bed reactor is a good choice for CaL energy storage using the limestone.
This work explores the use of limestone and dolomite for energy storage in concentrated solar power (CSP) plants by means of the calcium looping (CaL) process based on the multicycle carbonation/calcination of CaO.
Limestone presents a good attrition resistance in energy storage under fluidization. High fluidization velocity mitigates pore-plugging of limestone for energy storage. Thermochemical energy storage of CaO/CaCO 3 system is a rapidly growing technology for application in concentrated solar power plant.
The results show that the energy storage capacity of limestone is enhanced with increasing the CO 2 concentration from 70% to 100%. For example, X1 and X5 of the limestone increase by 16% and 9%, respectively. However, the fragmentation and attrition rate are also accelerated.
With increasing Ucarb, the frequency of collision between the particles and the wall of the reactor as well as the collision between particles are increased. It should be considered that although the higher Ucarb improves the energy storage capacity of the limestone, the attrition of the limestone particles is also intensified.
