Integrated Experimental and Analytical Wellbore Strengthening Solutions by Mud Plastering Effects
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Wellbore stability has plagued oil industry for decades. Inclusion of the mud in drilling and the effect of mud cake build up incorporate very complex chemical, thermal, mechanical, and physical phenomena. It is very ...
Resistive Heating Catalytic Micro-Reactor for Process Intensified Fuel Reforming to Hydrogen
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Process intensification of fuel reforming using micro-reactors has become crucial for feed flexibility in H2 production for fuel cells. In the literature on micro-reactors, energy supply for these endothermic reactions has ...
Near-Critical CO2-Assisted Liquefaction-Extraction of Biomass and Wastes to Fuels and Value-Added Products
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: With the growing need for sustainable carbon-neutral liquid fuels, low-grade feedstocks, such as lignocellulosic biomass, and municipal solid wastes offer sufficient potential via thermochemical conversion. But the existing ...
Syngas Generation From Landfills Derived Torrefied Refuse Fuel Using a Downdraft Gasifier
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Landfill reclamation is a good solution to utilize the wasted land occupied by municipal solid waste dumpsites or landfill sites. This also offers a good means to recover valuable materials and form environmentally benign ...
Syngas Characteristics From Catalytic Gasification of Polystyrene and Pinewood in CO2 Atmosphere
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Syngas production from catalytic gasification of polystyrene and pinewood in CO2 atmosphere was investigated over Ni-Mg/Al2O3 catalyst in a fixed-bed reactor at 900 °C. A quasi in situ method was adopted for catalytic ...
Influence of Char Intermediates on Synergistic Effects During Co-Pyrolysis of Pinewood and Polycarbonate
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Combined use of plastic and biomass wastes offers promising pathway for simultaneous energy production and waste disposal. In this article, the co-pyrolysis of pinewood and polycarbonate (PC) was performed in a fixed bed ...
Synergy in Syngas Yield From Co-Pyrolysis of Cow and Chicken Manures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Manure waste from dairy, livestock, and poultry industries can pose significant challenges in their disposal due to their odor, nitrogen, phosphorous, and heavy metals contents, and pathogens. Existing disposal techniques ...
