Solubility and Diffusivity of Acid Gases (CO2, N2O) in Aqueous Alkanolamine Solutions
TL;DR: In this paper, the diffusivity of N2O and CO2 in aqueous alkanolamine solution was measured and correlated over a wide range of conditions, and a modified Stokes-Einstein relation was derived.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fractional Condensation of Biomass Pyrolysis Vapors
Roel Johannes Maria Westerhof,D. Wim F. Brilman,Manuel Garcia-Perez,Zhouhong Wang,Stijn Oudenhoven,Wim P.M. van Swaaij,Sascha R.A. Kersten +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the possibilities to steer the composition and quality of pyrolysis liquids by the reactor temperature and the pyrolynsis vapor condenser temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fast Pyrolysis of Biomass in a Fluidized Bed Reactor: In Situ Filtering of the Vapors
Elly Hoekstra,Kees Hogendoorn,Xiaoquan Wang,Roel Johannes Maria Westerhof,Sascha R.A. Kersten,Wim P.M. van Swaaij,M.J. Groeneveld +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a system to remove in situ char/ash from hot pyrolysis vapors has been developed and tested at the University of Twente, which consists of a continuous fluidized bed reactor (0.7 kg/h) with immersed filters (wire mesh, pore size 5 μm).
Journal ArticleDOI
Catalytic and Noncatalytic Gasification of Pyrolysis Oil
TL;DR: In this article, a two-stage pyrolysis oil gasification system consisting of a sand fluidized bed followed by a fixed catalytic bed was proposed and tested, which uncouples the atomization/cracking of the oil and the catalytic conditioning of the produced gases, enabling protection of the catalyst and creating opportunities for energy efficiency improvements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combustion Kinetics of Char Obtained by Flash Pyrolysis of Pine Wood
TL;DR: In this article, the combustion kinetics of rapidly pyrolyzed wood have been investigated within the temperature range of 573−773 K and the oxygen concentration range of 2.25−36 vol %.
