Coal-based synthetic natural gas vs. imported natural gas in China: a net energy perspective
Journal of Cleaner Production, 2016Abstract China has two choices to meet the gap between its gas demand and supply in the short term: coal-based synthetic natural gas and imported natural gas. China currently faces the following question: between coal-based synthetic natural gas and imported natural gas, which is the better choice for China?

Digester Gas Upgrading to Synthetic Natural Gas in Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cells
Energy & Fuels, 2015 This work focuses on the process design and performance of an innovative plant for digester gas upgrading to synthetic natural gas (SNG). The differences and advantages over traditional upgrading processes are discussed. The main strength of digester gas upgrading via high-temperature electrolysis concerns its higher synthetic natural gas productivity ...

Production of Bio-Synthetic Natural Gas in Canada
Environmental Science & Technology, 2010Large-scale production of renewable synthetic natural gas from biomass (bioSNG) in Canada was assessed for its ability to mitigate energy security and climate change risks. The land area within 100 km of Canada's network of natural gas pipelines was estimated to be capable of producing 67-210 Mt of dry lignocellulosic biomass per year with minimal ...

China's synthetic natural gas revolution
Nature Climate Change, 2013China has recently pushed for investments in large-scale coal-fuelled synthetic natural gas plants. The associated carbon emissions, water needs and wider environmental impacts are, however, mostly neglected and could lock the country into an unsustainable development path.

Characterizing the Gas Permeability of Natural and Synthetic Materials
Transport in Porous Media, 2009The objective of this article is to propose an experimental method to compare the gas permeability of all the different materials used as gas barrier, such as compacted clay liners or geomembranes. This method is based on the falling pressure experiment, allowing the determination of a single coefficient whatever the material tested.

<div class="htmlview paragraph">Gaseous fuels (natural gas, synthetic natural gas and LP-Gases) used in transportation vehicles are assessed. The fuels’ physical properties require larger storage volumes than liquid fuels, posing unique environmental and safety problems. Gaseous fuels provide a significant portion of the U.S.

Exergetic evaluation and improvement of biomass-to-synthetic natural gas conversion
Energy & Environmental Science, 2009Synthetic natural gas (SNG) is suggested as an important future energy carrier. The conventional route for SNG production is based on gasification of biomass to synthetic gas and the subsequent methanation of synthetic gas to SNG. This study is aimed to analyze the process units using the concept of exergy.
