This perspective article provides a comprehensive overview of chemical looping beyond combustion (CLBC). It effectively presents the potential of CLBC for various chemical production processes, including methane conversion, oxidative dehydrogenation, epoxidation, and maleic anhydride production. The discussion of thermodynamic considerations and redox catalyst design strategies is insightful and can guide future research in this area. However, the lack of in-depth discussion of experimental results and direct comparison of CLBC with conventional technologies prevent it from receiving the highest rating. It's a good perspective, not a novel research article.
