Article Abstract
Currently, the traditional magnesium oxide production process is facing exceptional challenges arising from carbon emission restrictions and environmental protection. Waste bischofite pyrolysis has attracted much attention as a promising technology to address these challenges. Nonetheless, this process has primarily been demonstrated on a laboratory scale, with limited studies on an industrial scale. A comprehensive exergy analysis was conducted for the entire process and individual subunits within the pyrolysis process to identify potential areas for process enhancement. A FORTRAN subroutine based on empirical correlations of pyrolysis product yields was developed considering the impact of decomposition reactions on the simulation. Furthermore, the optimization of energy and exergy efficiency of the system was discussed in terms of the carbon dioxide emission factor, equivalence ratio, and pyrolysis temperature. The results show that the primary energy bottleneck lies in the combustion phase. In addition, the optimal energy and exergy efficiency conditions are a carbon dioxide emission factor of 5.3, an equivalent ratio of 1.15, and a pyrolysis temperature of 1100 °C. In comparison to the pilot-scale conditions, the energy efficiency and exergy efficiency increase by 2.55 and 3.61%, respectively. At this time, the MgO yield is 100%, and the HCl concentration is above 9.33%.

Hydrogen, as a clean energy source, is recognized as a pivotal energy carrier in the global transition to sustainable energy systems and serves as a crucial pathway for energy storage and efficient utilization within cryogenic systems. Hydrogen liquefaction is one of the most promising methods for increasing its energy density, enabling more efficient storage, transportation, and utilization in large-scale energy systems. However, substantial challenges persist, particularly regarding the high energy consumption associated with the liquefaction process.

Split-range control strategies are widely used in Multiple-Input Single-Output (MISO) industrial processes, particularly when actuators differ in terms of operational costs or physical characteristics. However, the integration of advanced features such as feedforward compensation and output constraint handling within these frameworks remains limited, particularly due to sequential actuation. Conventional feedforward methods assume simultaneous control action from all inputs, which conflicts with the nature of split-range operation, where only one actuator is active at a time.

To address the critical need for energy-efficient and environmentally sustainable cooling technologies, the thermoacoustic-Stirling duplex cryocooler (TSDC) offers a promising solution due to its high efficiency and versatile applications. However, the limited cooling capacity of individual TSDCs poses a significant challenge for practical implementation, necessitating system upscaling. To enhance power density and performance, we optimized a resonance tube-coupled TSDC by incorporating a coiled resonance tube and developing an active displacer modeling approach.
