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 ...
Effect of Acid–Base Pretreatment on Pyrolysis Kinetics of Pine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Biomass represents a significant renewable energy source. Pyrolysis is one method to directly convert biomass into thermochemical energy, with alkali and alkaline earth metals (AAEMs) content potentially improving energy ...
Effect of Alkali and Alkaline Earth Metallic Species on Gas Evolution and Energy Efficiency Evolution in Pyrolysis and CO2-Assisted Gasification
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this study, the same moles of alkali and alkaline earth metallic species were introduced into pine wood to investigate their effects on biomass pyrolysis and carbon dioxide-assisted gasification. First, thermogravimetric ...
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 ...
