摘要: The CaO-based pellets were fabricated using extrusion-spheronization method for calcium looping thermochemical heat storage under the fluidization. The effects of adhesive, biomass-based pore-forming agent, binder and particle size on the heat storage performance and mechanical property of the CaO-based pellets were investigated in a bubbling fluidized bed reactor. The addition of 2% (mass) polyvinylpyrrolidone as an adhesive not only helps granulate, but also improves the heat storage capacity of the pellets. All biomass-templated CaO-based pellets display higher heat storage capacity than biomass-free pellets, indicating that the biomass-based pore-forming agent is beneficial for heat storage under the fluidization. Especially, bagasse-templated pellets show the highest heat storage conversion of 0.61 after 10 cycles. Moreover, Al2O3 as a binder for the pellets helps obtain high mechanical strength. The CaO-based pellets doped with 10% (mass) bagasse and 5% (mass) Al2O3 reach the highest heat storage density of 1621 kJ·kg-1 after 30 cycles and the highest crushing strength of 4.98 N. The microstructure of the bagasse-templated pellets appears more porous than that of biomass-free pellets. The bagasse-templated CaO-based pellets doped with Al2O3 seem promising for thermochemical heat storage under the fluidization, owing to the enhanced heat storage capacity, excellent mechanical strength, and simplicity of the synthesis procedure.
