In this study, sewage sludge and mycelial waste from antibiotic production were pyrolyzed in a batch scale fixed-bed reactor as examples of two kinds of typical industrial biomass wastes with high nitrogen content. A series of experiments were conducted on the rapid pyrolysis and the slow...

Caking coal is difficult to be gasified in fluidized bed (FB) because of the inevitable particle agglomeration caused by caking in the dense bottom of the bed. Literature studies have shown that pre-oxidizing the coal can suppress its caking propensity, while quick dispersion of coal particles,...

Hydrogen-rich gas production from rice husk via steam gasification and catalytic reforming using CeO2-modified Ni-CaO absorption bifunctional catalysts synthesized by sol-gel method in a two-stage system was investigated. The results show that the Ce0.7Ni1Ca5 catalyst achieves maximum H2...

The article is devoted to investigating some fundamentals about a residue cracking gasification (RCG) process for petroleum residues which integrates the catalytic cracking of the residue and the gasification of the cracking-generated coke. Three heat carrier particles were tested to show their...
