Optimization of Rice Straw Properties via Torrefaction for Solid Fuel Applications Open
This study investigated the potential of biochar produced via torrefaction of rice straw as a sustainable alternative to coal and coke in iron and steel production. The effects of process parameters, temperature (200–300 °C), residence tim…
Energy potential of biochar from slow pyrolysis of mixed tree leaves in a pilot-scale fixed-bed reactor Open
Thermochemical conversion processes, such as pyrolysis, offered significant potential for harnessing energy from biomass as a substitute for conventional fuels. This study investigated energy generation from mixed tree leaves through pyrol…
Trace Ru Incorporation Boosted Co<sub>2</sub>P Nanorods for Superior Water Electrolysis and Substrate‐Paired Electrolysis Toward Value‐Added Chemicals in Alkaline Medium Open
Electro‐valorization of biomass‐derived chemicals has ensured sustainable production of value‐added products, an effective approach for reducing carbon footprint, through renewable energy. Electrochemical oxidation and reduction reactions …
Process Intensification of CO<sub>2</sub> Desorption in a Gas–Liquid Vortex Reactor Open
Solvent regeneration is a pivotal component in CO2 capture technology, primarily due to its high energy consumption, which constitutes the most significant cost factor. In the present study, the application of the gas-liquid vortex reactor…
An overview of biomass solid fuels: Biomass sources, processing methods, and morphological and microstructural properties Open
Biomass solid fuel (BSF) has emerged as a promising renewable energy source, but its morphological and microstructural properties are crucial in determining their physical, mechanical, and chemical characteristics. This paper provides an o…
Design and fabrication of biomass densification machine for teaching and research purposes Open
In developing nations, research output is limited due to factors like unreliable power supply and inadequate laboratory equipment. The high cost of purchasing completed laboratory equipment and the unavailability of accessories for importe…
Hydrodynamic Modelling of Coal-Biomass Mixture in a Bubbling Fluidized Bed Reactor Open
Biomass is a renewable and sustainable energy source. Co-firing of biomass with coal will increase the renewable energy share by decreasing the coal consumption. In the present paper, hydrodynamic behaviour of coal and biomass mixture is i…
