Online Detection of Selenium and Its Retention in Reducing Gasification Atmosphere

Christian Ludwig, Andrea Testino, Mohamed Tarik, Adrian Hess

The emission of selenium from coal gasification processes can cause harm to the environment and downstream equipment. With upcoming legislation, reliable detection as well as control of such gas species become crucial. This study therefore addresses the de ...

On-line liquid quench sampling and UV–Vis spectroscopy for tar measurements in wood gasification process gases

Christian Ludwig, Rudolf Paul Wilhelm Jozef Struis

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 ...

Optimal design methods applied to solar-assisted hydrothermal gasification plants

Alberto Mian

The gasification of highly watered waste residues may help to reduce fossil fuels consumption, as well as emissions, all the while improving efficiency. The integration of supercritical gasification with solar energy may improve the performances of both ne ...

On the efficiency, exergy costs and CO 2 emission cost allocation for an integrated syngas and ammonia production plant

This paper presents an exergy and environmental assessment of a 1000 metric t/day ammonia production plant based on the steam methane reforming (SMR) process, including the syngas production, purification (CO2 capture) and compression units, as well as the ...

Investigations into the Effects of Biofuel Contaminants on Solid Oxide Fuel Cells

Hossein Madi

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 ...

The influence of interunit carbon–carbon linkages during lignin upgrading

Jeremy Luterbacher, Masoud Talebi Amiri, Li Shuai

The cleavage of β-O-4 linkages in lignin can generate monomers with a phenyl propane structure that can easily be upgraded into valuable hydrocarbon biofuels and renewable aromatic chemicals. High-yield lignin monomer production from extracted (or technica ...

Organic Solvent Effects in Biomass Conversion Reactions

Jeremy Luterbacher, Li Shuai

Transforming lignocellulosic biomass into fuels and chemicals has been intensely studied in recent years. A large amount of work has been dedicated to finding suitable solvent systems, which can improve the transformation of biomass into value-added chemic ...

Formaldehyde stabilization facilitates lignin monomer production during biomass depolymerization

Yiming Li, Jeremy Luterbacher, Masoud Talebi Amiri, Florent Emmanuel Héroguel, Ydna Marie Questell-Santiago, Li Shuai

Practical, high-yield lignin depolymerization methods could greatly increase biorefinery productivity and profitability. However, development of these methods is limited by the presence of interunit carbon-carbon bonds within native lignin, and further by ...

Biomass To Liquids

Emanuela Peduzzi

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 ...

Structural Modification of Ni/gamma-Al2O3 with Boron for Enhanced Carbon Resistance during CO Methanation

Davide Ferri

Carbon deposition during CO methanation from biomass-derived gas is a significant challenge in terms of catalyst lifetime. It results from the severe reaction conditions imposed by the presence of unsaturated hydrocarbons in the gasified feedstock. This wo ...
