Distributed biogas production for biogas fuel

open access: yes, 2017
The Swedish government has a long-term vision of Sweden being a carbon-neutral society with a resourceefficient and sustainable energy system by 2050. The transport sector accounts for a quarter of Sweden's energy usage and 80 % of its energy consumption consists of fossil fuels.

An Analytical Design Model of a Vacuum Pressure Swing Adsorption Process for Biogas Upgrading

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
A steady‐state model was developed for a vacuum pressure swing adsorption (VPSA) process comprising adsorption, depressurization, and evacuation steps. The resulting analytical plant design model provides the optimal adsorber height required to achieve a target product purity with maximum bed utilization.

Prospective LCA of E‐Methanol Along the Transformation of Steel Industry

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
The environmental effects of change in steel production route on e‐methanol production are analyzed as they shift from blast furnace route to direct reduction route. Specific hydrogen demand reduces, as do the avoided CO2 emissions. E‐methanol's overall carbon footprint stays in a narrow range of −1 to −1.1 kg‐CO2‐eq./kg‐methanol.

Investigation of fluid dynamic in a scale-down laboratory digester

open access: yes, 2017
Mixing is a crucial process in biogas plants and is required to maintain uniform concentrations of biomass in the digester. However, mixing requires high energy inputs and hence energy efficient design and operation of the mixing process is of vital ...

Beyond hydrogen: Process design of a biogas steam reformer for Fischer–Tropsch synthesis

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
The effect of pressure and steam to carbon ratio on carbon conversion. Abstract We present an analysis of a pilot‐scale multi‐tubular biogas steam reforming reactor, part of a sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) development project in Brazil. The novelty of this work is the application of a new, validated power law kinetic model, specifically developed for

Creating a regulatory framework to support the development of biogas industries in rural areas: German experiences and their adaptability to Australia

open access: yes, 2009
Biogas production in Germany’s rural areas has witnessed a major expansion in recent years. This increase was mainly due to the special regulatory framework the government has introduced to meet its climate protection and renewable energy goals.

Economic and environmental implications of the development of UASB reactors in Mexico for sustainable industrial wastewater treatment

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The objective of this work is to demonstrate that the inclusion of an up‐flow anaerobic sludge bed (UASB reactor) within an industrial wastewater treatment plant reduces the plant's investment and operating costs compared to a system based solely on conventional complete‐mix activated sludge (CMAS), operating under the same design principles ...

Influence of Inoculum Content on Performance of Anaerobic Reactors for Treating Cattle Manure using Rumen Fluid Inoculum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Biogas productions of cattle manure using rumen fluid inoculums were determined using batch anaerobic digesters at mesophilic temperatures (room and 38.5 oC). The aim of this paper was to analyze the influence of rumen fluid contents on biogas yield from
