A 1.5 kWth hybrid solar/autothermal steam gasifier was designed and tested for continuously producing synthesis gas. Time-averaged responses to a series of inlet flow conditions were examined in a high-flux solar simulator. The gasifier consisted of a SiC ...
Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) have gathered considerable attention as a clean, highly efficient conversion device for the production of both electricity and heat from fuels. Due to their high operating temperatures, SOFCs do not require pure hydrogen as f ...
In biomass gasification processes, the formation and handling of tars are of major concern. Robust and versatile analytical tools are needed to on-line monitor tar compound concentrations in process gases from lab- to industrial scale. This study addresses ...
X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) yields direct access to the electronic and geometric structure of hybrid inorganic-organic interfaces formed upon adsorption of complex molecules at metal surfaces. The unambiguous interpretation of corresponding spectra ...
Biomass is the major source of renewable carbon which can be used to substitute fossil carbon in fuels and chemical products. This thesis addresses the modelling, design and thermoeconomic evaluation and optimisation of processes converting Biomass to Liqu ...
Energy demand and economic development are intrinsically linked. Earlier economic development came at the price of serious environmental pollution, posing a risk to life on earth. Thus, a transition from fossil to renewable energy is needed. Among the rene ...
Energy from woody biomass could supplement renewable energy production towards the replacement of fossil fuels. A multi-stage process involving gasification of wood and then catalytic transformation of the producer gas to synthetic natural gas (SNG) repres ...
This study evaluates three different solvent absorption processes for the pre-combustion capture of CO2 for a black coal IGCC (Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle) power-plant, with the aim of determining the best solvent process for pre-combustion capt ...
The detailed description of gas streams in biomass gasification plants is necessary for the correct design and operation of these units. Sulfur containing compounds are usually present in biomass gasification gas, since sulfur is typically found in the fee ...
Biomass-derived fuels are attractive due to the reduced greenhouse gas emissions and the potential contribution to the development of the agricultural industry. Particularly, 2nd generation biofuels, e.g., synthetic biodiesel as a high-performance and alte ...
