Abstract
The state of Paraná is a pioneer in the use of biogas as a renewable source of energy, and it is expected that by the year 2030 there will be 8,000 to 10,000 properties generating biogas in the state. According to this, Paraná is a leader in the generation of biogas in southern Brazil, and this is a promising market with high growth potential. Studies indicate that 69.91% of the Paraná territory is suitable for this generation. The main sources of waste amenable to treatment via bio-digestion are related to agricultural activities and are classified into vegetable (non-woody and woody) and livestock (pigs, cattle and poultry). Chemical Looping is one of the most promising technologies for CO2 capture in the process of energy production since the separation of the CO2 generated is inherent to the process itself. The product expected in the study is Syngas, gaseous fuel composed mostly of hydrogen (H2) and carbon monoxide (CO) and, to a lesser extent, of CO2 and CH4 used mainly as a precursor for obtaining hydrogen or as a precursor for obtaining liquid fuels in addition to the capture of CO2 during the process. The classic Three Reactors Chemical Looping Hydrogen (TR-CLH) process includes three reactors, namely FR, steam reactor (SR) and AR. outlays. For co-production of syngas and high-purity hydrogen, the Three-Reactors Chemical Looping Hydrogen (TR-CLH) process can produce high-purity hydrogen with 0,200 of mole fraction under autothermal conditions, but the syngas yield and purity are low. The present work aims to simulate through Aspen Plus software the technical feasibility of biogas of the Three Reactors Chemical Looping process.
