Hydrogen Production by Gasification of Biomass from Copoazu Waste
نویسنده
چکیده
Biomass is becoming a large renewable resource for power generation; it is involved in higher frequency in environmentally clean processes, and even it is used for biofuels preparation. On the other hand, hydrogen – other energy source – can be produced in a variety of methods including gasification of biomass. In this study, the production of hydrogen by gasification of biomass waste is examined. This work explores the production of a gaseous mixture with high power potential from Amazonas ́ specie known as copoazu, using a counter-flow fixed-bed bioreactor. Keywords—Copoazu, Gasification, Hydrogen production.

Simulation and modeling of hydrogen production from glucose biomass model compound via hydro-thermal gasification
Glucose is a 6-carbon carbohydrate compound present in plants and the ingredient for hemicellulose which makes up 30% of plants’ total mass. The current study uses glucose as reactant and evaluates hydrogen generation at different temperatures and different amounts of input flow of glucose – water mixture. Hydrothermal gasification method is used for hydrogen generation in an open system with c...
متن کاملAn overview on gasification of biomass for production of hydrogen rich gas
Gasification was chosen as one of the more conventional methods for conversion of biomass due to some important reasons such as space consideration, flexibility of fuels used, reducing the volume of solid waste and recovery of energy. Essentially, the process of gasification involves partial combustion of the organic part of the fuels to combustible gas rich in carbon monoxide, hydrogen and som...
متن کاملProduction of Hydrogen and Synthesis gas via Cu-Ni/Al2O3 catalyzed gasification of bagasse in supercritical water media
Bagasse as a real biomass was converted to hydrogen rich gas via catalytic supercritical water gasification process. To find the effect of Cu on selectivity of products, Cu promoted Ni-γAl2O3 catalysts were prepared with 1 to 20wt% Ni and 0.5 to 10wt% Cu loadings via impregnation method. Catalysts were characterized by ICP, BET, XRD, H2 chemisorption and TEM technique as well CHNS analysis was ...
متن کاملThe use of syngas derived from biomass and waste products to produce ethanol and hydrogen
Much attention has been placed on finding efficient processes for the production of ethanol and other biofuels. One area that shows promise is the conversion of synthesis gas (syngas) to ethanol and hydrogen by both thermochemical and microbiological methods. Two promising methods for creating syngas are the gasification of plant biomass and the pyrolysis of carbonbased waste products. Overall ...
