The paper proposes a critical assessment of municipal solid waste gasification today, starting from basic aspects of the process (process types and steps, operating and performance parameters) and arriving to a comparative analysis of the reactors (fixed bed, fluidized bed, entrained bed, vertical shaft, moving grate furnace, rotary kiln, plasma reactor) as well as of the possible plant configu...

Residue catalytic hydrogenation was carried out in a two-stage downflow fixed-bed reactor system, with HDM catalyst the first stage and HDS second one, to mimic industrial operation. The experiments were run at five sets of temperatures (395 °C (first reactor)/405 (second reactor), 400 °C/410 °C, 405 °C/415 410 °C/420 420 °C/430 °C). It found that initial deactivation mainly caused by rapid dep...

Pyrolysis is one of the most popular methods for thermal conversion biomass-derived materials, which can be applied to produce valuable products such as biochar, bio-oil, and pyrolysis gas. However, this does not change need more precise data on obtained from processes under different conditions, using types reactors or biomass material. have a high energy value been extensively studied. In pre...
