dumpsites can produce serious pollution problems in soil, water and air, and are the most frequent method of solid waste disposal in many developing countries. one of the pollution concerns at dumpsites is the emission of methane, which has been identified as a green house gas. in order to determine the surface emission of methane at an informal settlement built on a former dumpsite, six sampli...

BACKGROUND Energy efficiency analysis for different biomass-utilization scenarios would help make more informed decisions for developing future biomass-based transportation systems. Diverse biofuels produced from biomass include cellulosic ethanol, butanol, fatty acid ethyl esters, methane, hydrogen, methanol, dimethyether, Fischer-Tropsch diesel, and bioelectricity; the respective powertrain s...

Catalytic partial oxidation (CPOX) has recently received particular attention because it is one of the most attractive technologies for the production of syngas and hydrogen in small to medium scales. Current study subjected to partial oxidation reforming which have simultaneously studied the effect of the fuel composition and flow rates of methane-oxygen mixed gas on the SOFCs performances. In...

in this study, the effect of the levels of hydrogen addition to methane-air premixed flame in a micro-stepped reactor has been studied numerically. in addition, the effects of mixture velocity and walls’ thermal conductivity (kw) on the flame’s location, temperature, and species distribution in a micro reactor were calculated using a 2d numerical laminar steady code. the results showed that an ...
