摘要：The research describes the synthesis of nanocomposite Ni@ZrO2 oxygen carriers (OCs) and lanthanide doping effect on maintaining the platelet-structure of the nanocomposite OCs. The prepared OCs were tested in chemical looping reforming of glycerol (CLR) process and sorption enhanced chemical looping reforming of glycerol (SE-CLR) process. A series of characterization techniques including N-2 adsorption-desorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), H-2 temperature-programmed reduction (H-2-TPR), H-2 pulse chemisorption and O-2 temperature-programmed desorption (O-2-TPD) were used to investigate the physical properties of the fresh and used OCs. The results show that the platelet-stack structure of nanocomposite OCs could significantly improve the metal support interaction (MSI), thus enhancing the sintering resistance. The effect of lanthanide promotion on maintaining this platelet-stack structure increased with the lanthanide radius, namely, La3+ > Ce3+ > Pr3+ > Yb3+. Additionally, the oxygen mobility was also enhanced because of the coordination of oxygen transfer channel size by doping small radius lanthanide ions. The CeNi@ZrO2 showed a moderate 'dead time' of 220 s, a high H-2 selectivity of 94% and a nearly complete glycerol conversion throughout a 50-cycle CLR test. In a 50-cycle SE-CLR stability test, the CeNi@ZrO2-CaO showed high H-2 purity of 96.3%, and an average CaCO3 decomposition percentage of 53% without external heating was achieved.
