Summary
This research aims to elucidate the reaction mechanism for the catalytic gasification of coal by metal carbonates, by identifying the reaction pathways and the active form of the catalyst. The insight into the mechanism will help in improving process kinetics of coal gasification. Alkali carbonates and alkaline earth carbonates are being used to catalyze the carbon dioxide-carbon gasification reaction. Temperature-programmed reaction, isotopic labeling of the carbon and oxygen atoms in the carbonate, and mass spectrometric detection of labeled products are used to identify reaction pathways. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis of carbon-carbonate mixtures is used, at reaction conditions, to determine the chemical state of the carbonate.
