Abstract The present work analyzed the energy generation potential of Buriti (Mauritia flexuosa L. f.) by thermochemical reactions. experimental part study performed immediate analyses, elemental lignocellulosic analysis, thermogravimetric calorific values, and syn gas concentrations measurements gasification in a fixed-bed reactor. Additionally, numerical simulations estimated reactions Buriti...

Abstract Gasification and combustion are two common methods for Zhundong (ZD) coal utilization. In the present study, it was intended to investigate thermal transformation of Na in ZD at Lurgi fixed bed gasifier (Lurgi) circulating fluidized boiler (CFBB). To this end, raw samples before gasification gasified slags were gathered from Lurgi, combustion, burned slag, fly ash collected CFBB. The o...

Gasification is considered a clean and effective way to convert low quality biomass higher value gas solve various waste utilization problems as well. However, only 80% of converted through thermal processes. The remaining part char, which requires more time for conversion in that case reduces the efficiency gasifier. Seeking optimize process gasification, this work focuses on intensification r...

several methods are used to decrease seed drying time and enhance the quality of dried seeds. influidization methods, good aeration occurs during the drying process. in this research, conditioned seedswith 20% d.b. moisture content were dried at 30°, 40°, 50° and 60°c using three bed conditions (fixed,minimum fluidized, fluidized). all experiments were done using a batch-type fluidized bed drye...

Abstract. Water hyacinth being one of the top invasive aquatic plants has brought upon various challenges towards humanity and environment. The magnitude menace uncontrollable growth spread water sparked interest researchers in identifying its potential as a biomass feedstock for biofuel production. Biomass gasification is deemed promising green technology which capable converting into value-ad...
