Catalytic Pyrolysis of Hydrochar by Calcined Eggshells for Bioenergy Production: Improved Thermo-Kinetic Studies and Reduced Pollutant Emissions

Energy balance and emissions associated with biochar sequestration and pyrolysis bioenergy production.

The implications for greenhouse gas emissions of optimizing a slow pyrolysis-based bioenergy system for biochar and energy production rather than solely for energy production were assessed. Scenarios for feedstock production were examined using a life-cycle approach. We considered both purpose grown bioenergy crops (BEC) and the use of crop wastes (CW) as feedstocks. The BEC scenarios involved ...

Degradation Efficiency and Kinetic Study of Phenol by Catalytic Ozonation Process in the Presence of Calcined Scallop Shell

Abstract Introduction: Phenol is amongst the dangerous environmental pollutants, which due to its presence in the industrial effluents, should be removed. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of catalytic ozonation by calcined scallop shell as a catalyst in the removal of phenol Materials and Methods: Scallop shells were collected from the coast of Caspian Sea in G...

Chemistry of Pyrolysis and Kinetic Studies of Shea Nut (Vitellaria paradoxa) Shells Activated Carbon for Textile Waste Water Treatment

Phosphoric acid (H3PO4) and Zinc chloride (ZnCl2) catalyzed shea nut shells, subjected to a one way activation scheme was employed to study the adsorption kinetics and mode of diffusion of industrial dye uptake. Thermodynamics data obtained in this study indicate that the sorption of dye spontaneously increases with time and decreases after equilibration was...

simulation and experimental studies for prediction mineral scale formation in oil field during mixing of injection and formation water

abstract: mineral scaling in oil and gas production equipment is one of the most important problem that occurs while water injection and it has been recognized to be a major operational problem. the incompatibility between injected and formation waters may result in inorganic scale precipitation in the equipment and reservoir and then reduction of oil production rate and water injection rate. ...
