Sustainable Ammonia and Hydrogen Production via Biomass-Fueled Chemical Looping
TS-072583 — The Need
The ammonia industry is a major contributor to global CO₂ emissions, primarily due to its reliance on fossil fuels for hydrogen production and the energy-intensive air separation process for nitrogen. With over 500 million tons of CO₂ emitted annually from ammonia synthesis, there is a …

Integrated Chemical Looping System for CO2 Capture and High-Purity Syngas Generation
TS-072579 — The Need
Industrial processes that utilize syngas (hydrogen and carbon monoxide) often generate tail gas streams rich in CO₂ and other byproducts. Conventional carbon capture methods, such as acid gas removal units, are highly energy-intensive and reduce overall plant efficiency. There is a critic…
