Climate change has been and is going to continue a major challenge for humanity. Concentration of greenhouse gases (GHG) in the atmosphere is directly linked to the average global temperature on Earth. The most abundant GHG is CO2, product of burning fossil fuels. The use of fossil fuels is likely to continue in the near future, thus is mandatory to reduce CO2 emissions to the atmosphere, specially in power generation which is responsible for approximately 30% of the CO2 emissions.
One of the most exciting and economically attractive technologies is Chemical looping combustion (CLC). The scope of my research is to set a dynamic model that simulates the CLC packed bed reactor behaviour and later analyze the controllability of such process. This will provide more knowledge about CLC and the feasibility of his large-scale implementation​.
