1999 Research overview. Before 1998 Lyngfelt’s
his main field of research was related to
fluidized bed combustion: especially the sulphur
capture process and the influence of reducing
conditions in this process, but also nitrous oxide
emission and the progress of combustion. Lyngfelt
has
made Chalmers world-leading in chemical-looping
combustion ( In
addition
to first demonstration of CLC with gaseous, solid
and liquid fuels, as well as the first
demonstration of the use of a number of
monometallic or combined oxygen carriers, the work
involves a number of breakthroughs in different
aspects of chemical-looping technology, e.g. i)
Proposal of: chemical-looping steam reforming for
hydrogen production with simultaneous CO2
capture, ii)
Proposal of Chemical-Looping with Oxygen
Uncoupling (CLOU), iii)
Finding the potential for CLOU using oxygen
releasing capabilities of a number of combined
manganese oxides, i.e. Mn combined with Fe, Ni,
Si, Mg and Cu. Lyngfelt
is
the author/co-author of 207 scientific
publications, with 12948 citations, and an H index
of 62 (Scopus, Sept. 2018) and Lyngfelt is in the
list: 2016/2017/2018
HIGHLY
CITED RESEARCHER, Thomson Reuters/Clarivate
Analytics/Web of Science, "3,000 highly cited
researchers in 21 fields of the sciences and
social sciences". ”In recognition of ranking among
the top 1% researchers for most cited documents,
in their specific field”. Conferences Lyngfelt brought the 3nd
International Conference on Chemical-Looping,
Chalmers, Göteborg 2014, with 180 participants to
Sweden. Lyngfelt
further
initiated the start of a new conference series: 1st
International
Conference on Negative CO2 Emissions, http://negativeco2emissions2018.com,
Chalmers, Sweden, May 22-24, 2018. The
conference had 300 participants, 11 plenaries, 150
orals/papers. Chalmers will also hold the 2nd
conference in this series in May 2020. All these
conferences were, will be, organized by Carl
Linderholm. Research
projects Through a
number of international research projects, see
below, Lyngfelt has been in close collaboration
with appr. 25 companies, universities and research
institutes. The
major part of the funding of Lyngfelt’s CLC
research has come from EU, with a total budget for
his research of 10 M€. Thus, he
has been deeply involved in the conception of ten
EU/ EU-RFCS projects on CLC and coordinated
several: ·
GRACE 2002-2003,
coordinated by BP. ·
CCCC 2001-2004, EU-RFCS
project coordinated by Lyngfelt. ·
ENCAP IP-project
2004-2007, ·
·
Cachet, IP-project,
2006-2008, coordinated by BP, ·
ECLAIR, 2008-2012,
EU-RFCS project coordinated by Alstom. Project
based on experimental work by Chalmers in ENCAP
and initiated by Lyngfelt. ·
INNOCUOUS, 2010-2013,
EU-project coordinated by Lyngfelt ·
NoCO2,
2012-2017, ERC Advanced Grant, Principal
Investigator Anders Lyngfelt ·
ACCLAIM, 2012-2013, EU-RFCS
project coordinated by Lyngfelt. ·
SUCCESS, 2014-2018,
EU-project based on proposal by Lyngfelt Moreover Lyngfelt
coordinated the Nordic CO2
Sequestration Programme (NoCO2),
2003-2006, funded by Nordic Energy Research He
also coordinates the Nordic Project “Negative CO2”,
one of three flagship projects selected for
funding out of appr. 100 applications. |
