Worldwide efforts are being made to increase the use of renewable energy in order reduce emission greenhouse gases. Africa is blessed with abundant resources fossil fuels as well resources. Yet continent, especially sub-Saharan Africa, afflicted power crisis. For example, Nigeria, erratic electricity supplies will persist unless government diversifies her sources and adopt new technologies available generation sector. International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) has called for promotion...
Carbon dioxide (CO2) emission will increase due to the increasing global plastic demand. Statistical data shows that production alone contribute at least 20% of annual carbon budget in near future. Hence, several alternative methods are recommended overcome this problem, such as bio-product synthesis. Algae consist diverse species and have huge potential be a promising biomass feedstock for range purposes, including bio-oil production. The convenient cultivation method algae could one main...
In this study, coconut oils have been transesterified with ethanol using microwave technology. The product obtained (biodiesel and FAEE) was then fractional distillated under vacuum to collect bio-kerosene or bio-jet fuel, which is a renewable fuel operate gas turbine engine. This process modeled RSM ANN for optimization purposes. developed models were proved be reliable accurate through different statistical tests the results showed that modeling better than RSM. Based on optimum production...
The rapid spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in early 2020 prompted a global lockdown from March to July 2020. Due strict measures, many countries experienced economic downturns, negatively affecting industries including energy, manufacturing, agriculture, finance, healthcare, food, education, tourism, and sports. Despite this, the COVID-19 pandemic provided rare opportunity observe impacts worldwide on carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions climate change. Being main greenhouse gas...
Microwave plasma as a potential tool to convert CO2 has been extensively studied in recent years. A simulated study on the parameters via variation of operating pressure microwave model performed this study. The establishment was based finite element method analyse spatial distribution torch over period time. Plasma such electron potential, density, and temperature were investigated at three different pressures, growth density associated with molecular ions observed be located more enter...
Abstract The environmental damage stemming from traditional diesel begins during crude oil extraction and persists throughout its usage. burning of fossil fuels has further deteriorate the effect added to global warming by emitting harmful substances. Moreover, reduction finite fuel reserves due widespread made adoption renewable resources essential. Given these considerations, biodiesel emerges as a highly promising alternative conventional environmentally beneficial nature, source,...
Nigeria, being the world’s largest importer of diesel-powered gen-sets, is expected to invest in bio-fuels future. Hence, it important examine thermal properties and synergy wastes for potential downstream resource utilization. In this study, conversion as a route reduce exploding volume from sachet-water plastic (SWP) oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) biomass was studied. Thermogravimetric (TGA) subsequent differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) used analysis. The effect heating rate at 20...
The potential of Caulerpa lentillifera, Gracilaria coronopifolia and Chaetomorpha linum, as biomass feedstock was investigated in this study. It concluded that seaweed is more suitable for bio-based products synthesis, i.e., bioplastic bio-lubricants, instead biofuels due to its relatively low calorific value (~12 MJ/kg). Since has high moisture content (~80%), hydrothermal liquefaction recommended, efficiency can be further enhanced through microwave technology. Besides, it found the...
There are several methods of biomass conversion, including hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL). The implementation microwave technology in the HTL process is still new, especially on conversion marine into bio-crude. In this work, macroalgae Chaetomorpha sp. was used as feedstock to produce phenolic-rich bio-oil through microwave-assisted HTL. abundantly found Malaysia, creating a green tides issue. By utilizing these algae, tide issue can be solved and value-added obtained. However, from has...
