Experiments were performed on a laboratory scale fluidized bed gasifier to characterize the gasification products of almond shell and hull removed in nut processing operations and to determine the effect of gasifying media ...

The steam reforming of ethanol and the gasification of sugarcane bagasse processes integrated with gas turbine combined cycle have been considered to produce biohydrogen and other bioelectricity forms. Biohydrogen obtained ...

The kinetics of the steam-assisted gasification for three different agro-industrial solid wastes (sawdust, olive and plum pits) was studied by macro thermo-gravimetric analysis (macro-TGA) at different heating rates (5, ...

The air/steam gasification of wood sawdust (SD), plum and olive pits (PP, OP) bio-wastes was studied using macro-thermogravimetric analysis at three heating rates (5, 10, 15K/min). Three stages were identified during ...

Back in 1970s and 1980s, cogeneration plants in sugarcane mills were primarily designed to consume all bagasse, and produce steam and electricity to the process. The plants used medium pressure steam boilers (21 bar and ...

The pulp and paper sector is intensive in the use of energy, and presents a high participation in the industrial context, specially based in the black liquor, a renewable source generated in the pulp process. Black liquor ...

This work presents a thermodynamic analysis of the integration of biomass gasification systems in a sugarethanol factory. It is considered the effect of gasification of the straw, bagasse and vinasse separately as well as ...

The influence of the nickel-based catalyst on the content of hydrogen gas produced by the gasification of sawdust and its effect on organic impurities (tars) at the pilot plant scale is studied. The effect of the reaction ...
