Hydrogen from Biomass as an energy carrier has generated increasing interest in recent years. There are several different technologies to convert solid or liquid Biomass into a gas mix consisting of mainly hydrogen and carbon dioxide. Up to 30% of the energy stored in the product gas would originate from the sun by using solar thermal applications to source the conversion while the equivalent o...

In order to reduce environmental pollution by plastic wastes, supercritical water gasification (SCWG) appears as a promising technology. The present study investigates the SCWG process of polypropylene (PP) waste using particle-resolved direct numerical simulations (PR-DNS). A directional ghost-cell immersed boundary method has been used solve reacting condition, including detailed molecular di...

This article reports the first kinetics model for Supercritical Water Gasification (SCWG) that describes the formation and interconversion of individual gaseous species. The model comprises 11 reactions, and it uses a lumping scheme to handle the large number of intermediate compounds. We determined numerical values for the rate constants in the model by fitting it to experimental data previous...
