The reduction of CO2 emission is crucial for the mitigation of climate change.A considerable amount of industrial CO2 can be absorbed in the form of carbonates through high-temperature sorption processes.In this regard,the efficient conversion of carbonates to value-added products will provide an economically viable method for the sustainable usage of carbon compounds.Herein,we report a promising solution involving the use of a glycerol and ethanol mixture as a hydrogen donor in the dry reforming process with CaCO3 to produce syngas.A series of metal active components,including Ni,Fe,Co,Cu,Pt,Pd,Ru,and Rh,was used to promote this reaction.Ni showed comparable performance with that of Pd,but outperformed Co,Fe,Cu,Rh,Ru,and Pt.Approximately 100％ conversion of glycerol and ethanol,～92％ selectivity of synthesis gas (H2 and CO),and a H2/CO ratio of ～1.2 were achieved over CaCO3 containing 10 wt Ni (10Ni-CaCO3).Meanwhile,the CO2 concentration was less than 5 vol％,indicating that most of the CO2 captured by the carbonate can be transformed into chemicals;however,they cannot simply be emitted.The CO2 released from the decomposition of CaCO3 not only adjusted the ratio of H2 to CO but also eliminated cokes to guarantee the CO2 absorption-conversion cyclic stability in the absence of steam and at high temperatures.
