  2. 1. Fischer-Tropsch synthesis from bio-syngas models over cobalt and cobalt-iron alumina supported catalysts

    Author : Dewi Tristantini; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fe:Co-ratio; Cobalt; Bio-syngas; Fe-Co bimetallic; Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis;

    Abstract : Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis is a process in which synthesis gas (syngas), a mixture of H2 and CO, is converted into long chain hydrocarbons mainly over Co- or Fe-based catalysts. The FT synthesis requires an H2/CO molar ratio (usage ratio) of approximately 2.1 above the catalyst surface. If the inlet syngas H2/CO ratio is less than 2. READ MORE

    Abstract : IPCC reported in its climate change report 2013 that the atmospheric concentrations of the greenhouse gases (GHG) carbon dioxide (CO2), methane, and nitrous oxide now have reached the highest levels in the past 800,000 years. CO2 concentration has increased by 40% since pre-industrial times and the primary source is fossil fuel combustion. READ MORE

  5. 3. Assessing the Integration of Biomass Gasification-Based Production of Chemicals — Case Study of an Oxo Synthesis Plant

    Author : Maria Arvidsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; chemicals production; biorefinery; gasification; syngas; oxo synthesis; process integration;

    Abstract : The chemical industry sector is energy-intensive and highly dependent on fossil feedstock. The primary long-term option to reduce fossil feedstock dependence and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is to switch to renewable feedstock. READ MORE

  6. 4. CO2 Separation - from Aqueous Amine Solvent to Ionic Liquid-based solvent

    Author : Nan Wang; Xiaoyan Ji; James Glynn; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy Engineering; Energiteknik;

    Abstract : CO2 separation is one of the most important roles in CO2 mitigation target as many human production activities (e.g., cement, iron and steel, and biogas productions) cause CO2 emissions. The solvent-based absorption is the most mature technology for CO2 separation, where different solvents capture CO2 either in chemical or physical absorptions. READ MORE

  7. 5. Sustainable valorization of Biomass into Syngas/H2 via Biocarbon catalyst

    Author : Hanmin Yang; Weihong Yang; Pär Jönsson; Linda Sandström; Chunfei Wu; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Pyrolysis; Catalytic upgrading; Biomass; Biochar; Syngas; Hydrogen; Materials Science and Engineering; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : Environmental issues stemming from the rapid growth in global energy demand and carbon dioxide emissions require urgent resolutions. Biomass represents a viable alternative for displacing fossil fuels, as its energy can be converted into electricity, heat, fuels, and chemical precursors, thus substituting petrochemicals. READ MORE
