Proving the climate benefit in the production of biofuels from municipal solid waste refuse in Europe
(Elsevier, 2017-01-01)
The non-recyclable fraction of municipal solid waste (MSW refuse) represents over half of the total MSW production in Europe, with an energetic potential of 1250 PJ/year, a similar quantity to the current potential for ...

Fischer-Tropsch biofuels production from syngas obtained by supercritical water reforming of the bio-oil aqueous phase
(Elsevier, 2017)
A new process to produce low-temperature Fischer-Tropsch products from the syngas obtained by supercritical water reforming technology of the bio-oil aqueous phase is developed and analyzed. The process includes four ...

Accelerated MEA degradation study in hybrid CO2 capture systems
(Elsevier, 2017)
CO2 capture systems are typically divided into pre- post- and oxyfuel- combustion systems. However, the interest on hybrid systems, which integrate elements of more than one of the above systems, is attracting major ...

The effects of calcium and potassium on CO2 gasification of birch wood in a fluidized bed
(Elsevier, 2017)
Birch wood was leached of its naturally occurring ash forming elements and doped with three concentrations of calcium or potassium before being gasified in a laboratory bubbling fluidized bed reactor. The wood samples were ...

Kinetic characterization of solvents for CO2 capture under partial oxy-combustion conditions
(Elsevier, 2017)
Partial oxy-combustion is proposed as a new carbon capture concept based on the use of oxygen-enriched air as an oxidizer instead of air during the combustion stage followed by a CO2 chemical absorption. This novel approach ...

Evaluation of MEA 5M performance at different CO2 concentrations of flue gas tested at a CO2 capture lab-scale plant
(Elsevier, 2017)
Chemical absorption is the most effective and mature post-combustion alternative that might be applied for carbon capture in fossilfuel power plants and other energy-intensive industries such as cement production, refineries ...
