Health effects of power plant emissions through ambient air quality

Coal burning power plants are a frequent target of regulatory programmes because of their emission of chemicals that are known precursors to the formation of ambient particulate air pollution. Health impact assessments of emissions from coal power plants t ...

Thermo-economic analysis and multi-objective optimisation of lignocellulosic biomass conversion to Fischer-Tropsch fuels

François Maréchal, Emanuela Peduzzi, Guillaume Boissonnet

This paper addresses the techno-economic evaluation and optimisation of processes converting lignocellulosic biomass into liquid fuels, through the development of a suitable framework and the modelling and design of Biomass to Liquids (BTL) processes. In p ...

Catalyst design for the transformation of CO2 into value-added products

Felix Daniel Bobbink

The mass-utilization of fossil resources has led to a dramatic increase in carbon dioxide (CO2) production, most of which is released directly into the Earth's atmosphere, resulting in global warming. Efforts to contain CO2 emissions and to capture, store ...

Identifying environmentally and economically optimal bioenergy plant sizes and locations: A spatial model of wood-based SNG value chains

Martin Gassner, Léda Gerber, Bernhard Steubing, Luca Pampuri

The optimal size and location of bioenergy plants with regards to environmental and economic performance are assessed with a spatially explicit value chain model of the production of synthetic natural gas (SNG) from wood. It consists of several individual ...

Thermo-chemical production of F-T fuels from lignocellulosic biomass: Heat integration of gasification

François Maréchal, Emanuela Peduzzi, Guillaume Boissonnet

This study focuses on the process integration of gasification in the thermo-chemical conversion of lignocellulosic biomass into liquid fuels thorough gasification and Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) synthesis (biomass to liquids, BtL). Two main gasification technolo ...

Catalysts for High Temperature Gas Cleaning in the Production of Synthetic Natural Gas from Biomass

Bio synthetic natural gas (Bio-SNG) is being proposed as an alternative to the natural gas of fossil origin (NG) [1]. Bio-SNG consists mainly of CH4 (at least 95%mol), has a high heating value (e.g. 10 kWh/m3N), and respects the quality standards of the NG ...
