Meeting global climate goals requires significant deployment of carbon capture technologies, particularly in bioenergy systems. Bio-CHP (Combined Heat and Power) systems, when combined with storage (CCS), have the potential to achieve negative emissions by permanently removing CO2 from atmosphere. The BioNETzero project aims advance next-generation oxy-combustion technologies for bio-CHP, addressing key challenges such as biomass feedstock variability, combustion efficiency, capture. Through...
Equilibrium calculations using the element potential method have been used to determine optimum conditions for gasification of wood pellets and understand limitations influence preheated gasifying agent on product gas composition. The were carried out under isobaric (1 atm) isothermal cellulose as waste fuel. For each case results obtained effect feed Various mixtures steam/cellulose [mol/mol] oxygen/steam examined high yields H2 CO at a given temperature. yield hydrogen carbon monoxide with...
The current work investigates how turbulence affects the mass transfer rate between inertial particles and fluid in a dilute, polydisperse particle system. Direct numerical simulations are performed which all scales of fully resolved represented Lagrangian reference frame. results show that, similarly to monodisperse system, decreases as result clustering. This occurs when flow time scale (based on integral scale) is long relative chemical scale, strongest one order magnitude smaller than...
A 2-D axisymmetric model of multiphase heat, mass, and momentum transfer phenomena in natural draft cooling tower is developed using a CFD code Fluent. The fill the modeled as porous medium. energy mass sources this zone are evaluated solving separate 1-D heat exchange. spatial dependence accounted for by dividing into set vertical channels. solver produces boundary conditions each channel, while channel exports to solver. To accelerate calculations, an original technique known proper...
