The improvement of a simulation model for a distributed CCHP system and its influence on optimal operation cost and strategy
TL;DR: In this paper, several detailed simulation models are proposed to investigate whether the simulation model accuracy will influence the operation cost substantially, and a comparison is performed on operation cost by testing the simplified simulation model and the detailed simulation model, respectively.

Systematic staging design applied to the fixed-bed reactor series for methanol and one-step methanol/dimethyl ether synthesis
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated possible design advances in the series of fixed-bed reactors for methanol and dimethyl ether synthesis, and proposed a systematic staging design proposed by Hillestad [1] is applied to the watercooled and gas-cooled series of reactors of Lurgi's technology.

Thermodynamic analysis of an Energy-Water-Food (Ewf) nexus driven polygeneration system applied to coastal communities
Muhammad Luqman,Tareq Al-Ansari +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a new multigeneration system is proposed to address some of the most common and vital needs of coastal communities, which is based on principles of sustainability and decentralisation and is driven by renewable energy sources including sun and biomass.

Indicator-based economic, environmental, and social sustainability assessment of a small gasification bioenergy system fuelled with food processing residues from the Mediterranean agro-industrial sector
P. Manara,Anastasia Zabaniotou +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an indicator-based estimation of sustainability was performed for a gasification-based bioenergy system considering not only economic but also environmental and social issues, with an installed capacity of 40kWel and an investment cost estimated to be approximately 1520€/kWhel and a net profit up to 20,000€/year.
Journal ArticleDOI
CO and CO 2 Methanation Over Ni/SiC and Ni/SiO 2 Catalysts
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared Ni/SiC and NiO2 catalysts prepared by both wet impregnation (WI) and deposition-precipitation (DP) methods for CO and CO2 methanation.

Biochar for environmental management: an introduction
Johannes Lehmann,Stephen Joseph +1 more
TL;DR: Biochar is the product of heating biomass in the absence of or with limited air to above 250oC, a process called charring or pyrolysis also used for making charcoal as discussed by the authors.
