Inputs for the configuration of the chemical looping CO2 capture system are entered on the Config parameter screen. The following parameters are available:

•Chemical Looping:

•Metal Oxide (MeO) Type: The type of oxygen carrier. Currently the only supported type is NiO.

•Inert Support Material: The inert support material for the oxygen carrier. Currently the only supported type is Al2O3.

•MeO % in Oxygen Carrier (OC): The percentage of MeO in the oxygen carrier.

•CO2 Product Compressor Used?: This determines whether or not the chemical looping system includes a CO2 product compressor.

•CO2 Product Stream: (only shown when a CO2 product compressor is used)

•Maximum CO2 Compressor Capacity: The maximum capacity of the compressor used to compress the captured CO2.

•Number of Operating CO2 Compressors: The number of operating CO2 compressors; the number is determined by comparing the maximum CO2 compressor capacity with the CO2 flow rate captured in the absorber. This value must be an integer.

•Number of Spare CO2 Compressors: The number of spare CO2 compressors.
