ResumoAbstract The carbonate looping process is an efficient technology for post‐combustion CO 2 capture from fossil‐fired power plants. Testing campaigns with continuous CO 2 capture were performed in a 1‐MW th carbonate looping pilot plant at the Technische Universität Darmstadt. During two distinguished experimental campaigns the heat for the regeneration of the calcium‐based sorbent in the calciner was provided by propane combustion and combustion of pulverized hard coal, respectively. For several hours of operation, the CO 2 concentration in the flue gas was reduced to chemical equilibrium conditions. High overall CO 2 capture efficiencies above 90 % were achieved.
