This work reports the effect of pressure on the steam/oxygen gasification at 1000°C of the char derived from low temperature-pressure distillation of granulated scrap tyres (GST). The study was based on the analysis of gas production, carbon conversion, cold gas efficiency and the high heating value (HHV) of the product. For comparison, similar analyses were carried out for the gasification of ...

Executive Summary The Clean Coal Technology (CCT) Program is a government and industry co-funded effort to demonstrate a new generation of innovative coal-utilization processes in a series of " showcase " facilities built across the country. These projects are carried out on a sufficiently large scale to prove commercial worthiness and generate data for design, construction, operation, and tech...

Approach • Complete reverse kinetics and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modeling to optimize reactor geometry for forward reactions • Measure forward kinetics in quartz & Inconel reactors to determine reactor wall catalysis • Measure forward kinetics in reactor packed with membrane material to determine catalytic activity • Measure membrane H2 permeability in presence of clean syngas compon...

We hereby report on a pioneering and inspiring solid oxide cell which, assisted by natural gas, utilizes a bifunctional electrolysis cell configuration to effectively consume CO2 to produce CO at the cathode side and simultaneously synthesize highly valuable syngas (mixture of CO and H2) at the anode side via a one-step green process.

Clostridium drakei SL1(T) is a strictly anaerobic, H2-utilizing, and acid-tolerant acetogen isolated from an acidic sediment that is a potential platform for commodity chemical production from syngas fermentation. The draft genome sequence of this strain will enable determination of the acid resistance and autotrophic pathway of the acetogen.

effect of water gas shift reaction (co+h2o=co2+h2) on wustite reduction has been investigated by a transient, non-isothermal mathematical model based on grain model. in this model, wustite porous pellet is reduced using syngas, namely a mixture of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and water vapor. for this purpose, governing equations containing continuity equation of species and energy...

Synthesis gas (syngas) fermentation is a biological carbon fixation process through which carboxydotrophic acetogenic bacteria convert CO, CO2, and H2 into platform chemicals. To obtain an accurate overview of the syngas research innovation from 2012 to 2022, systematic search was performed on Web Science The Lens, focusing academic publications patents that were published or granted during thi...

An alumina-supported nickel catalyst was prepared by impregnation of Ni2+ solution onto mesoporous alumina under microwave irradiation (denoted as M-Ni/Al2O3). For comparison, a catalyst with the same nickel content was prepared by conventional impregnation method (denoted as UM-Ni/Al2O3). Both M-Ni/Al2O3 and UM-Ni/Al2O3 catalysts were applied to the syngas (H2 + CO) production by methane oxy-s...

Gasification involves turning organic fuels (such as biomass resources) into gaseous compounds (producer gas or syngas) by supplying less oxygen than is needed for com­ plete combustion of the fuel. Gasifica­ tion occurs at temperatures between 1112o and 2732o F and produces a lowto medium-energy gas depending upon the process type and operating conditions. Gasification of biomass resources is ...
