Abstract: We study carbonation process of CaO with lattice Boltzmann method. Specifically,effects of porosities of CaO particles on carbonation rate are investigated. It shows that efficiency depends on porosity nonlinearly due to competition between molar mass and permeability of particles.

Key words: lattice Boltzmann method, gas-solid reaction, porosity, reaction rate
