The formation of biomass tar is one of the most serious drawbacks of gasification, because it
not only clogs filters and pipelines, but also poses a serious threat to the environment. Tar …

In the production of cocoa fruits, the main product (cocoa beans) represents only a small part
of the total fruit weight, as the remaining 80–90% is not used in chocolate production. These …

Carbon-based metal catalyst has attracted wide attention in the utilization for tar catalytic
cracking because of its high hierarchical porous structure and high dispersion of metal …

Steam gasification of biomass generates a hydrogen-rich product gas that is diluted in
unreacted steam and contaminated with tar. In this study, a novel heat integration alternative …

The production of syngas from coffee skin biomass waste as a raw material offers significant
potential as an alternative automotive fuel source through the gasification process …

Carbon-based metal catalysts have excellent catalytic performance due to their porous
structure and high dispersion of metal particles. In this paper, polydopamine (PDA) …

The presence of tar significantly hinders the development of biomass pyrolysis and
gasification technologies, making efficient tar removal methods critically important. Catalytic …

This study aimed to enhance the thermal characteristics of rice husk biomass through
torrefaction conducted in a fixed-bed reactor. A novel approach was employed by circulating …

The foragers of the southern African Middle Stone Age were among the first humans to
adapt their environment and its resources to their needs. They heat-treated stone to alter its …

Palm kernel shells and mahogany fruit shells are technically possible to be converted into
