Abstract:
... The products from fast pyrolysis of biomass are variable and highly dependent upon feedstock composition, particle size and geometry, and operating conditions such as heating rate, reaction temperature, and sweep gas composition and velocity. Microwave heating is internal to the biomass particles, thereby avoiding convective and conductive heat transfer limitations, which facilitates decoupling he ...

Abstract:
... Calcium looping CO₂ capture is a promising technology to reduce CO₂ emissions from cement production. Coal has been seen as a logical choice of fuel to drive the calcium looping process as coal is already the primary fuel used to produce cement. This study assesses the impact of using different fuels, namely coal, natural gas, woody biomass and a fuel mix (50% coal, 25% biomass and 25% animal meal ...

Abstract:
... The objective of this research was to find cost-effective inner-looping redox-reaction-based biomass conversion catalysts by screening five Fe-containing materials through the integration of pine wood pyrolysis and gasification. All the evaluation tests are conducted in a fixed bed reactor under atmospheric pressure. The effect of temperature, water injection rate (steam/biomass ratio), catalyst l ...
