Experimental study of dry HCl removal from synthesis gas or flue gas using CaO sorbents, in the context of CaO-based chemical looping processes, is reported. The study was first conducted in a TGA and a fixed-bed reactor to test the effects of chloridation temperature, sorbent particle size, HCl con...
