Three-Dimensional Simulations of a SE-SMR Process

Lor the SMR reactor, there are the three chemical reactions (4.190)-(4.192). The kinetic expressions for SMR reactions from Xu and Lroment [167] were used in these simulations. The kinetics expressions are given in (4.193), (4.194) and (4.195). Lor the SE-SMR reactor, there is one more reaction, the C O2 adsorption reaction  

The rate equations for CO2 adsorption by the CaO sorbent were taken from Sun et al. 

The equilibrium pressure of CO2 is calculated from the equilibrium concentration of CO2 presented by Abanades et al. [2]  

Okunev et al. [115] proposed an approximate analytical expression for the rate of CO2 desorption as a function of sorbent texture, temperature, CO2 pressure, particle size, and Sherwood number. The reaction was defined as
