1. 1. Fuel Cells and Biogas

   Författare :Lars Hedström; Per Alvfors; Peter Lund; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; air bleed; biogas; carbon dioxide; carbon monoxide; current distribution; dilution; efficiency; energy conversion; energy systems; experimental; fuel cell; fuel cell systems; PEFC; poisoning; reformate; SOFC; Chemical energy engineering; Kemisk energiteknik;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns biogas-operated fuel cells. Fuel cell technology may contribute to more efficient energy use, reduce emissions and also perhaps revolutionize current energy systems. The technology is, however, still immature and has not yet been implemented as dominant in any application or niche market. LÄS MER

3. 2. Solid Fuel Conversion in Dual Fluidized Bed Gasification - Modelling and Experiments

   Författare :Louise Lundberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; dual fluidized bed gasification; fuel mixing; biomass; semi-empirical modelling; char gasification rate; fuel conversion; active bed material; char reactivity;

   Sammanfattning : Dual fluidized bed gasification (DFBG) is the initial step towards the transformation of ligno-cellulosic materials into a raw gas, which can be further upgraded into transportation fuels, such as substitute natural gas, Fischer-Tropsch diesel, dimethyl ether, and methanol. DFBG units can be operated in two distinctly different ways, depending on whether the main product is a gas (to be refined into a transportation fuel) or heat and power (with gas as a by-product).

   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; iron and steel industry; energy efficiency; CO2 emissions; fuel substitution; fuel switch; excess heat; biomass gasification; bio-syngas; synthetic natural gas; SNG; energy market scenarios; energy management; barriers; driving forces; järn- och stålindustrin; energieffektivisering; CO2-utsläpp; bränslebyte; överskottsvärme; restvärme; förgasning; bio-syntesgas; syntetisk naturgas; SNG; energimarknadsscenarier; energiledning; hinder; drivkrafter;

   Sammanfattning : 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. LÄS MER

5. 4. Analysing performance of bio-refinery systems by integrating black liquor gasification with chemical pulp mills

   Författare :Muhammad Raza Naqvi; Yinyue Yan; Chou Siaw Kiang; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bio-refinery; Biomass; Black liquor gasification; Bio-fuel; Pulp mill; CO2; Conversion efficiency; Integration; Synthesis gas;

   Sammanfattning : Mitigation of climate change and energy security are major driving forces for increased biomass utilization. The pulp and paper industry consumes a large proportion of the biomass worldwide including bark, wood residues, and black liquor. LÄS MER

7. 5. Characterization of conversion zones in a reciprocating grate furnace firing wet woody biomass

   Författare :Narges Razmjoo; Strand Michael; Chungen Yin; Linnéuniversitetet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biomass combustion; Grate firing; Fuel bed; Moisture; Gas phase; Conversion zone; Experimental; Temperature distribution; Gas analysis; Bioenergiteknik Energi- och Miljöteknik; Bioenergy Technology;

   Sammanfattning : Grate-firing systems are a common and popular combustion technology for burning biomass. However, combustion of biomass in these furnaces may emit a large amount of pollutants in the form of CO, CH4, PAH, NOx, and particles. LÄS MER
