Biomass combustion is an important pathway of energy generation from renewable
resources. Even though biomass combustion is an established conversion process, there is …

This paper presents a process modeling and optimization study about steam-gasification of
biomass. The gasification model is developed using Aspen Plus process simulation tool …

In the present work, an innovative configuration is proposed based on solar pre-heating
concept and biomass direct-combustion for combined production of electricity, hot water and …

The wood carbonization is made at an enclosed environment with controlled addition of
atmospheric air producing, besides charcoal, other coproducts such as condensable and …

Optimal geometric and process parameters related to air staging, which ultimately lead to
lower pollutant formation and a higher thermal efficiency, can be found by utilisation of the …

Today, there is a growing interest to produce biogas by anaerobic digestion process with
regard to the decrease in fossil fuel sources, global warming, and the rising level of water …

Trigeneration or combined cooling, heat and power (CCHP) systems fueled by raw biogas
can be an interesting alternative for supplying electricity and thermal services in remote rural …

As an advanced power generation system, supercritical CO 2 (S-CO 2) coal fired power
plant has advantages of high electric efficient and compact system layout. In this paper, the …

The common combustion disturbances in the fuel bed in a grate-fired boiler pose a great
challenge to accurate modelling of the fuel bed conversion. Therefore, it is difficult to …

This work is aimed at determining the impact of Secondary Air (SA) boundary conditions on
CFD combustion simulation results in a small-scale wood pellet boiler. Two sets of boundary …
