Boosting carbon efficiency of the biomass to liquid process with hydrogen from power: The effect of H2/CO ratio to the Fischer-Tropsch reactors on the production and power consumption
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Carbon efficiency of a biomass to liquid process can be increased from ca. 30 to more than 90% by adding hydrogen generated from renewable power. The main reason is that in order to increase the H2/CO ratio after gasification ... -
Fuel characterization and thermal degradation kinetics of biomass from phytoremediation plants
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Biomass obtained from phytoremediation energy crops Miscanthus x giganteus and Sida hermaphrodita planted on different soils contaminated with heavy metals was thermogravimetrically studied and kinetically analyzed, assuming ... -
Investigations of molybdenum-promoted manganese-based solid sorbents for H2S capture
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The promotion effect of Mo-addition to alumina-supported Mn-based sorbents for high-temperature desulphurization was explored. A series of Mn-based sorbents with fixed Mn-loading and different Mo-loadings were prepared by ... -
Life-cycle assessment of biochar production systems in tropical rural areas: Comparing flame curtain kilns to other production methods
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)A life-cycle assessment (LCA) using end point methods was performed for the generation and sequestration of one kg biochar by various pyrolysis methods suitable for rural tropical conditions. Flame curtain kilns, a novel, ... -
Pre-treatment methods for straw for farm-scale biogas plants
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)This study investigated the effect of five different pre-treatment methods (ammonia (NH3), caustic soda (NaOH), dry milling, hot water and steam explosion) for straw for biogas production. The methods were selected based ...
