Hydrogen rich gas production from high temperature air/steam gasification of biomass
PublicationW pracy przedstawiono nowoczesną technikę konwersji biomasy oraz stałych odpadów komunalnych w celu produkcji paliwa gazowego bogatego w wodór. Opisany proces gazyfikacji przebiega w wysokiej temperaturze przy obniżonej koncentracji tlenu i udziale pary wodnej. Dzięki temu możliwa jest produkcja gazów palnych, w szczególności H2, który można wykorzystać do produkcji energii elektrycznej i cieplnej.

Conversion of waste biomass into activated carbon and evaluation of environmental consequences using life cycle assessment
PublicationIn this article, activated carbon was produced from Lantana camara and olive trees by H3PO4 chemical activation. The prepared activated carbons were analyzed by characterizations such as scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller, X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. H3PO4 is used as an activator agent to create an abundant pore...

Modeling and optimization of chemical-treated torrefaction of wheat straw to improve energy density by response surface methodology
PublicationToday, torrefaction is important technique for extending the potential of biomass for improvement of energy density. The independent variables investigated for torrefaction study were temperature, retention time, acid concentration, and particle size. The experiment was designed by central composite design (CCD) method using design expert (version 11). The three dependent variables were higher heating value (HHV), energy enhancement...
