Advance in chemical looping on energy and fuel high efficient utilization
Chemical looping represents a ground-breaking advancement in the realm of sustainable energy and carbon capture. This innovative process plays a pivotal role in mitigating environmental concerns compared with linked to traditional fossil fuel combustion. At the heart of a chemical looping system lies oxygen carrier particles, typically a metal oxide, which shuttles between two crucial reactors-the reduction reactor and the oxidation reactor. In the combustion phase, this metal oxide liberates lattice oxygen, essentially catalyzing the fuel's combustion. The subsequent step unfolds in the reduction reactor, where the metal oxide undergoes regeneration by extracting oxygen from air or an alternative oxygen carrier, thereby completing the cyclic loop. The hallmark of chemical looping lies in its ability to achieve carbon dioxide separation without resorting to additional and energy-intensive separation steps. This intrinsic efficiency renders chemical looping an exceptionally attractive and promising approach for carbon capture and utilization. As industries grapple with the imperative to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, this technology emerges as a beacon of hope, offering a more sustainable path for energy production. Beyond its environmental benefits, chemical looping holds potential economic advantages by optimizing the use of resources and minimizing the need for costly carbon capture and storage methods. In essence, chemical looping stands as a testament to the intersection of technological innovation and environmental stewardship in the pursuit of a cleaner, more sustainable energy future.
The special issue is a collection of high quality papers from 2025 The 3rd China Conference on Chemical Looping (CCL-2025) which was held at Qingdao from 3th -5th August 2025. It is the highest -level chemical looping conference in China, forming a research platform for researchers, academics, research students, as well as engineers from universities and industry.

Fuel的CAR指数
2023年3月份科睿唯安官方一次性踢除35本SCI期刊，多数涉及学术诚信问题，让我们意识到学术期刊的“被踢”指数，也很重要。目前，对于期刊的“被踢”指数，这里介绍一下：CAR指数（关于CAR的详细介绍，请关注：www.jcarindex.com），这是一种评价期刊学术诚信风险的指数，指数越高代表可能的风险越大。从数据看，Fuel不管是2022年度，还是2023年度的CAR指数，都是比较低的。当然，CAR指数仅供参考，期刊风险情况，需以科睿唯安或中科院预警等官方为准！
