This book was released on 2016-01-22 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In view of limited liquid fuels, in terms of crude oil reserves and to reduce the use of constantly and rapidly diminishing natural gas reserves, researchers are attracted towards Fisher Tropsch reaction. Aspen Plus(r) has become reliable, acquainted and recognized processes modeling software, extensively in practice for coal and biomass gasification processes. It contains different physical property packages that are useful for solid handling. Aspen Plus(r) model has been proposed to develop a better understanding of the process for geometric analysis of gasifier. This simulation presents an alternate technology for conventional coal gasification to improve the performance of process by varying geometry of gasifier. The Purpose of this study, is entirely focus on the production of synthesis gas from coal, through a process of indirect gasification and using only steam as the gasifying medium. The book serves as reference material for students, engineers and scientists working in the area of syngas production and coal gasification

This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was done to support the research anddevelopment program of the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) in thethermochemical conversion of biomass to liquid transportation fuels using currentstate-of-the-art technology. The Mitretek study investigated the use of two biomassgasifiers; the RENUGAS gasifier being developed by the Institute of GasTechnology, and the indirectly heated gasifier being developed by BattelleColumbus. The Battelle Memorial Institute of Columbus, Ohio indirectly heatedbiomass gasifier was selected for this model development because the syngasproduced by it is better suited for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis with an iron-basedcatalyst for which a large amount of experimental data are available. Bechtel with Amocoas a subcontractor developed a conceptual baseline design and several alternativedesigns for indirect coal liquefaction facilities. In addition, ASPEN Plus processflowsheet simulation models were developed for each of designs. These modelswere used to perform several parametric studies to investigate various alternativesfor improving the economics of indirect coal liquefaction.

Download or read book CO2 Capture by Reactive Absorption Stripping written by Claudio Madeddu and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-12-15 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on modelling issues and their implications for the correct design of reactive absorption–desorption systems. In addition, it addresses the case of carbon dioxide (CO2) post-combustion capture in detail. The book proposes a new perspective on these systems, and provides technological solutions with comparisons to previous treatments of the subject. The model that is proposed is subsequently validated using experimental data. In addition, the book features graphs to guide readers with immediate visualizations of the benefits of the methodology proposed. It shows a systematic procedure for the steady-state model-based design of a CO2 post-combustion capture plant that employs reactive absorption-stripping, using monoethanolamine as the solvent. It also discusses the minimization of energy consumption, both through the modification of the plant flowsheet and the set-up of the operating parameters. The book offers a unique source of information for researchers and practitioners alike, as it also includes an economic analysis of the complete plant. Further, it will be of interest to all academics and students whose work involves reactive absorption-stripping design and the modelling of reactive absorption-stripping systems.

Download or read book Gasification for Practical Applications written by Yongseung Yun and published by IntechOpen. This book was released on 2012-10-24 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although there were many books and papers that deal with gasification, there has been only a few practical book explaining the technology in actual application and the market situation in reality. Gasification is a key technology in converting coal, biomass, and wastes to useful high-value products. Until renewable energy can provide affordable energy hopefully by the year 2030, gasification can bridge the transition period by providing the clean liquid fuels, gas, and chemicals from the low grade feedstock. Gasification still needs many upgrades and technology breakthroughs. It remains in the niche market, not fully competitive in the major market of electricity generation, chemicals, and liquid fuels that are supplied from relatively cheap fossil fuels. The book provides the practical information for researchers and graduate students who want to review the current situation, to upgrade, and to bring in a new idea to the conventional gasification technologies.

Download or read book Chemical Looping Systems for Fossil Energy Conversions written by Liang-Shih Fan and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-02-14 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the current carbonaceous fuel conversion technologies based on chemical looping concepts in the context of traditional or conventional technologies. The key features of the chemical looping processes, their ability to generate a sequestration-ready CO2 stream, are thoroughly discussed. Chapter 2 is devoted entirely to the performance of particles in chemical looping technology and covers the subjects of solid particle design, synthesis, properties, and reactive characteristics. The looping processes can be applied for combustion and/or gasification of carbon-based material such as coal, natural gas, petroleum coke, and biomass directly or indirectly for steam, syngas, hydrogen, chemicals, electricity, and liquid fuels production. Details of the energy conversion efficiency and the economics of these looping processes for combustion and gasification applications in contrast to those of the conventional processes are given in Chapters 3, 4, and 5.Finally, Chapter 6 presents additional chemical looping applications that are potentially beneficial, including those for H2 storage and onboard H2 production, CO2 capture in combustion flue gas, power generation using fuel cell, steam-methane reforming, tar sand digestion, and chemicals and liquid fuel production. A CD is appended to this book that contains the chemical looping simulation files and the simulation results based on the ASPEN Plus software for such reactors as gasifier, reducer, oxidizer and combustor, and for such processes as conventional gasification processes, Syngas Chemical Looping Process, Calcium Looping Process, and Carbonation-Calcination Reaction (CCR) Process.
