Analysis and Removal of Product Gas Contaminants Present in Gasification Processes

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 ...

Statistical mechanical model of gas adsorption in porous crystals with dynamic moieties

Berend Smit, Cory Matthew Simon, Efrem Daniel Braun

Some nanoporous, crystalline materials possess dynamic constituents, for example, rotatable moieties. These moieties can undergo a conformation change in response to the adsorption of guest molecules, which qualitatively impacts adsorption behavior. We pos ...

Thermal pumping gas viscometer for Wobbe Index determination

Gaël André Léon Farine

Natural gas is defined as a combustible mixture of hydrocarbons coming from ground deposits and it is mainly used as a source of energy for burners and motors. Its consumption is increasing worldwide, as this represents a cheap and abundant source of energ ...

Testing of the hydro-mechanical behaviour of shales

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Valentina Favero

Shales are among the most commonly considered geomaterials in current energy-related geomechanical investigations, as they are involved in engineering applications such as the unconventional extraction of natural gas, CO2 sequestration and nuclear waste ge ...

Smart material concept: reversible microstructural self-regeneration for catalytic applications

Davide Ferri, Andre Heel, Roman Kontic

This paper presents a proof-of-concept study and demonstrates the next generation of a "smart" catalyst material, applicable to high temperature catalysis and electro-catalysis such as gas processing and as a catalyst for solid oxide cells. A modified citr ...

Royal Society of Chemistry2016

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 ...

Heavy hydrocarbon mixtures as fuels for SIEMENS DLE gas turbines

Associated gases at oil wells are often rich in heavy hydrocarbons (HHC, here denoting hydrocarbons heavier than methane). HHC may cause handling and combustion difficulties as their properties are different from standard natural gas, therefore HHC rich as ...

Renewable and non-renewable exergy costs and CO2 emissions in the production of fuels for Brazilian transportation sector

An exergy and environmental comparison between the fuel production routes for Brazilian transportation sector, including fossil fuels (natural gas, oil-derived products and hydrogen), biofuels (ethanol and biodiesel) and electricity is performed, and the p ...
