Experimental Demonstration of the Concept of Endothermic Fuels for Providing Efficient Cooling to Scramjet Combustors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The development of endothermic fuels is important for providing efficient cooling to scramjet combustors operating at high Mach numbers. Generally the fuel itself can be used as coolant for the engine elements.

Methanol Decomposition on TiO2 Under Ambient Conditions: Cooperative Proton Transfer at Hydrated Interfaces

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Under ambient conditions, the TiO2 surface becomes hydrated by adsorbed hydroxyl groups (OH) and water molecules. This surface hydration promotes methanol decomposition, rendering the first deprotonation step nearly barrierless compared with ideal UHV conditions.

Dynamics of direct hydrocarbon PEM fuel cells

open access: yesScientific Reports
Hydrocarbon fuels contain approximately 50 times more energy per unit mass than commercial batteries, thus converting even 10% of the energy contained in hydrocarbon fuels to electrical energy could present a more mass-efficient electrical energy source ...

An investigation into the conversion of specific carbon atoms in oleic acid and methyl oleate to particulate matter in a diesel engine and tube reactor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The paper is concerned with particulate formation from the fuels oleic acid and methyl oleate. In particular the paper reports, quantitatively, the propensity of individual carbon atoms in these two molecules in being converted to particulate.

Design and Optimization of a Double‐Column Vapor Recompression Heat Pump Distillation Process via NSGA‐II for Separating Ternary Wide‐Boiling Mixtures

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study proposes a novel double‐column vapor recompression heat pump (DCVRHP) distillation process for separating ternary wide‐boiling‐range mixtures under two different vapor conditions: n‐hexane/n‐heptane/n‐octane using low pressure steam and n‐hexanol/n‐octanol/n‐decanol using high pressure steam.

Catalytic Pyrolysis of Waste Polystyrene Over Fe–B Composite Catalyst for Enhanced Liquid Fuel Production

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Healthcare derived polystyrene waste represents a growing and under addressed fraction of plastic waste streams due to contamination risks and limited recyclability. This study aims to investigate the valorization of waste polystyrene foam through catalytic and noncatalytic pyrolysis pathways to evaluate product yield distribution and identify

Combined effect of increasing the post‐reformer temperature and adding red mud as a secondary catalyst in the thermocatalytic reforming of digestate

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract This work studies the combined effect of increasing the post‐reformer temperature and introducing red mud as a support catalyst in the thermocatalytic reforming (TCR®) of digestate. The TCR® method, developed by the Fraunhofer Institute for Environmental, Safety and Energy Technology UMSICHT (abbreviated as Fraunhofer UMSICHT), is an extension

Potential contribution of biomass gasification‐based technology in energy transition: a technical review coupled with bibliometric studies

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Biomass gasification technology has been extensively researched around the world; however, there is a need to evaluate the current research landscape and evolutionary direction of research in the broader context of energy transition. A systematic bibliometric analysis of the Web of Science database was performed for articles that fall within ...

Alkane biosynthesis gene expression and its increased production in recombinant cyanobacteria

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio
Microalgae such as cyanobacteria convert CO2 to compatible drop‐in fuels, such as alkanes. However, the production yield is approximately 0.05–1.0% of the dry weight of natural algae.
