Kinetics and thermodynamics dataset of iron oxide reduction using torrefied microalgae for chemical looping combustion.

ABSTRACT: The reduction of iron oxides transpires through the application of heat wherein a carbon source known as reductant is required. In order to design a chemical looping combustion using iron as an oxygen carrier and torrefied microalgae biomass as a reductant, the kinetics and thermodynamics dataset must be determined. Using the Arrhenius law of reaction, the kinetics dataset was obtained employing the three chemical reaction model such as the first order (C1), the reaction order 1.5 (C1.5), and the second-order (C2). The iron oxide reduction from hematite to metallic iron was sub-divided into three phases wherein phase 1 (Fe₂O₃ → Fe₃O₄) is from 365 °C to 555 °C, phase 2 (Fe₃O₄ → FeO) is from 595 °C to 799 °C, and phase 3 (FeO
