Devolatilization Characteristics of Cellulose, Hemicellulose, Lignin and the Selected Biomass During Thermochemical Gasification: Experiment and Modeling Studies
(Oklahoma State University, 2012-05-01)
Pyrolysis and gasification are two promising thermochemical conversion technologies for conversion of biomass into fuels, chemicals and power. Devolatilization is the first major process that occurs in biomass gasification ...
Treatment of biomass-derived synthesis gas using commercial steam reforming catalysts and biochar
(2011-12)
Scope and Method of Study: The destruction of tars is a crucial technological barrier for the development and further commercialization of biomass gasification. The decomposition of tar compounds using catalysts is a ...
Advanced biopower generation via gasification of biomass and municipal solid waste
(2018-12)
The overall goal of this study was to develop and analyze efficient power generation systems through the downdraft gasification of biomass and municipal solid waste (MSW) for distributed power applications. This goal was ...
Life Cycle Assessment of Two Catalysts Used in the Biofuel Syngas Cleaning Process and Analysis of Variability in Gasification
(Oklahoma State University, 2014-07-01)
Syngas known also as producer gas is the main product from biomass gasification process. This gas is considered as a renewable energy which can be converted into liquid fuels. Within syngas are significant amount of tars, ...
Experimental investigation and simulation of a fluidized-bed gasifier using switchgrass
(2013-12)
The overall goal of this research was to improve and optimize yield and composition of syngas generated from biomass gasification using an autothermal lab-scale fluidized-bed gasifier, and to develop a biomass gasification ...
Effect of the Reducing Agent Dithiothreitol on Ethanol and Acetic Acid Production by Clostridium Strain P11
(Oklahoma State University, 2010-05-01)
The objective of this research is to investigate the effect of the reducing agent dithiothreitol (DTT) on enhancing ethanol production from synthesis gas (syngas) using Clostridium strain P11 in 250-mL serum bottles. ...
Ethanol Production from Syngas by Clostridium Strain P11 Using Corn Steep Liquor as a Nutrient Replacement
(Oklahoma State University, 2010-05-01)
The objective of this research is to evaluate corn steep liquor (CSL) as an inexpensive nutrient and substitute to yeast extract (YE) used in the conversion of synthesis gas (syngas) to ethanol. Syngas is primarily a mixture ...
