Challenges in removal of contaminants, especially tars, from biomass-generated producer
gas continue to hinder commercialization efforts in biomass gasification. The objectives of …

The purpose of this study was to investigate gasification performance of four switchgrass
pretreatments (torrefaction at 230 and 270° C, densification, and combined torrefaction and …

This research investigates the gasification of hydrothermal-carbonized-biomass pellets,
focusing on the synergistic impact of pellet size and moisture content on the production of …

Energy, water, land, and natural resources are under great constraints to support increasing
demands from the growing population worldwide. The availability of fossil energy has been …

Effectiveness of four catalysts (biochar, activated carbon, acidic surface activated carbon,
and mixed metal oxide) was studied for simultaneous removal of toluene, NH3, and H2S …

This study performs techno‐economic analysis and Monte Carlo simulations (MCS) to
explore the effects that variations in biomass feedstock quality have on the economic …

Biomass gasification has the potential to produce renewable fuels, chemicals and power at
large utility scale facilities. In these plants catalysts would likely be used to reform and clean …
