Item Open Access X-ray diffraction and TGA kinetic analyses for chemical looping combustion applications(Elsevier, 2017-12-19) Tijani, Mansour Mohammedramadan; Aqsha, Aqsha; Mahinpey, NaderSynthesis and characterization of supported metal-based oxygen carriers were carried out to provide information related to the use of oxygen carriers for chemical looping combustion processes. The Cu, Co, Fe, Ni metals supported with Al2O3, CeO2, TiO2, ZrO2 were prepared using the wetness impregnation technique. Then the X-ray Diffraction (XRD) characterization of oxidized and reduced samples were obtained and presented. The kinetic analysis using Thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA) of the synthesized samples was conducted. The kinetics of reduction reaction of all samples were estimated and explained.
