Thermal gasification of pasture plants (hay) is so far considered as difficult mainly due to the high amount of inorganics (ash, alkalis). Under certain circumstances it could be an additional resource for power production. There has been some experiments ...
A review of the state of the art gas turbine power plants designs with CO2 capture was performed to set up a list of technologies to be considered in a conceptual process superstructure. It has been found that the efficiency and economics of carbon dioxide ...
One of the main bottlenecks to deploying large-scale carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) in power plants is the energy required to separate the CO 2 from flue gas. For example, near-term CCS technology applied to coal-fired power plants is projected t ...
In the public and scientific debate on biofuels, ethanol from lignocellulosic biomass is generally the most popular alternative that may allow for a sustainable production. Compared to thermochemical processing of biomass which assures a complete conversio ...
A systematic comparison and optimization of thermo-chemical hydrogen production processes with CO2 capture is performed. The process options include the resource type, the syngas production method and the hydrogen purification technology, including CO2 sep ...
The energy efficiency of an industrial hydrogen production process using steam methane reforming (SMR) combined with the water gas shift reaction (WGS) is analyzed using process integration techniques based on heat cascade calculation and pinch analysis wi ...
The thermo-environomic assessment of the industrial production of ammonia has been investigated in this project. Thermodynamic models for the ammonia synthesis were developed on the flowsheeting software Vali based on the techniques used at LENI. Several p ...
When using natural or waste wood in thermo-chemical conversion processes, the presence of a number of heteroatoms (e.g. sulfur, chlorine, potassium and sodium or heavy metals) may hinder the processes themselves as well as pose a threat to equipment and/or ...
The thermochemical production of hydrogen from lignocellulosic biomass is systematically analyzed by developing environomic models combining thermodynamics with economic analysis, process integration techniques and optimization strategies for the conceptua ...
A systematic framework is developed for the thermo-environomic modeling, analysis and optimization of fuel decarbonization processes using precombustion routes to decarbonize the fuel by CO2 removal before burning the purified H2-rich gas in a gas turbine ...
