    Thermal Cracking: The simple distillation of crude oil produces various types of products and some of them (heavy distillates) are not very much useful as a fuel when compared to light distillates. So there is a need for subsequent conversion of heavy distillates to light distillates. This can be obtained by altering the molecular structure of hydrocarbons in heavy distillates. One of the ways of accomplishing this change is by ‘Cracking’, a process that breaks the high boiling point petroleum fractions

    Direct combustion is the most common way of converting biomass to energy - both heat and electricity- and worldwide it already provides over 90% of the energy generated from biomass. Direct combustion of solid biomass fuel is well understood, relatively straightforward, commercially available, and can be regarded as a proven technology. Biomass combustion systems can be easily integrated with existing infrastructure. Direct combustion of biomass for heat generation is widely used in cold climate

    Dry coal separation with the air dense medium fluidized bed (ADMFB) is an effective method for coal utilization and environmental protection. In this study, feed particles with various components were adjusted by controlling the number of middle density particles (Gmiddle). The separation performance of the feed particles with various components was theoretically analyzed. The separation results were directly related to the gas velocity, bed height, and Gmiddle. The mathematical model between the

    Mungse et al. reported the pure phase of iron-manganese oxides (FeMnO3 and Fe3Mn3O8) that exhibit CLOU property. It was found that Fe3Mn3O8 was reduced into FeMnO3 at higher temperatures. Fe3O4 and MnO were observed as reduced products after methane combustion reaction of FeMnO3 [25]. Nickel manganese oxides were also prepared for methane conversion [50]. CoO-NiO oxides were prepared as mixed oxide based oxygen carrier, however, the reaction rate was lower than that of its individual oxides due to the

    green-house gases. Biomass pyrolysis has witnessed exponential growth in its research and has been investigated extensively in the last few decades, first in the form of fixed bed reactors and later in the form of moving bed reactors (fluidized bed, auger bed etc). As the combustion of solid biomass is analogous to the combustion of other solid fuels, such as coal and waste, essentially the same technology is applicable to all solid fuels, although modifications are required to handle the high content

    a combination of them. As shown in the table, not all of the technologies are as effective as those to remove sulfur oxides, thus a combinational approach is used. One of the more impressive developments in clean coal technology has been the fluidized bed technology (Berg & Hagar, 2007). This technology has been in development since the 1980s and represents a great leap forward in the clean burning of coal. This technology allows the burning of coal with high sulfur content with little to

    Sorbent characteristics This chapter discusses the properties of solid sorbents relevant to the performance and cost of CO2 capture. The chapter begins with a discussion of the solid sorbent properties that are important for CO2 capture. The discussion then broadens to include a range of factors which affect the CO2-capture process, such as the interactions between the solid sorbent and other flue gas components, sorbent attrition and degradation, and the influence of reaction kinetics. The chapter

    The Positive and Negative Effects of Biogeochemical Carbon Sequestration and Carbon Capture/Storage on the Atmosphere, Lithosphere, and Hydrosphere John Ocker, Mr. Andrews, Block 3AC, 2014 Earth Science Project Paul V. Moore High School Abstract As the level of carbon emissions in the atmosphere continues to skyrocket, carbon dioxide forms a “wall” around the atmosphere, from which solar energy is unable to escape. Carbon storage/capture and carbon sequestration can theoretically prevent solar
