Remote sensing application in biomass crop production systems in Oklahoma
(2013-12)
This study was conducted to evaluate the combined effects of nitrogen and cropping systems on biomass yield and quality and to describe the spatial variation of biomass yield, soil carbon and nitrogen within a switchgrass ...
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 ...
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 ...
Switchgrass biomass to ethanol production economics: Field to fuel approach
(2010-12)
Scope and Method of Study: Switchgrass has been proposed as a dedicated energy crop. The first essay determines switchgrass yield response to nitrogen fertilizer for a single annual harvest in July and for a single annual ...
Process engineering and scale-up of autotrophic Clostridium strain P11 syngas fermentation
(2010-12)
Scope and Method of Study: Biomass gasification followed by fermentation of syngas to ethanol is a potential process to produce bioenergy. The process is currently being researched under laboratory- and pilot-scale in an ...
