Abstract

Biomass chemical looping gasification (BCLG) gives a promising platform for cost-effective and low-polluting syngas production. To overcome the cumbersome process and poor dispersion of two-step synthesized synergistic oxygen carriers (OCs), NiO-LaFeO3 synergistic OCs were synthesized in one-step by sol–gel method with the found best Ni introduction amount of 0.5. The high lattice oxygen mobility and powerful oxidation capacity derived from the Ni-Fe synergistic effect made it perform better in the BCLG reaction. Due to the extraordinary stability of crystalline phase and oxygen activity, its reactivity did not suffer from any degradation during the 50 long-time redox cycles over 2750 min under the optimal working conditions of the ex-situ configuration, mutual mode and steam/biomass mass ratio of 5.0. The gas yield, carbon conversion, syngas selectivity and H2/CO ratio were constantly maintained around 1846.45 mL/g, 86.74%, 79.96% and 2.0, respectively. This study provides a feasible technical route for highly efficient and durable syngas production.
