This study investigates the gasification behaviour of bituminous coal using different reactants of CO 2 , steam and a mixture of CO 2 and steam under entrained flow gasification conditions at temperatures of 1000 C and 1200 C with atmospheric pressure. The major gas constituents of the syngas were measured using online micro-GC with a model number Varian 490, whereas the minor pollutant gases were analysed using Kitagawa gas detection tubes. A maximum carbon conversion of 86% was achieved under steam gasification at a temperature of 1200 C compared to 74% from CO 2 gasification. The higher carbon conversion from steam gasification is due to the higher gasification reactivity than CO 2 gasification. At 1000 C, the lower heating value (LHV) from steam gasification was determined to be 60%, 70% and 80% higher than that of CO 2 gasification using the reactant concentrations of 10, 20 and 40 vol. %, respectively. Using a stoichiometric 50/50 ratio of CO 2 and steam, the yield of H 2 , CO and CH 4 were increased by 56%, 106% and 35% compared to that of pure CO 2 gasification. At 1000 C, the LHV under mixed reactant condition is close to the LHV from the pure steam gasification at 1200 C. In steam gasification, increasing the temperature by 200 C from 1000 C decreases the LHV by 17 and 10% using 10 and 20 vol.% steam. The higher heating value from steam gasification is due to the H 2 and CH 4 -rich syngas compared to CO-rich syngas in CO 2 gasification. The BET surface area of the solid char from steam gasification is about 17 and two times higher than that of CO 2 gasification at 1000 C and 1200 C, respectively.

The paper is presenting the experimental analysis of the use of biodiesel from waste sunflower oil and a blend of sunflower oil with palm oil as fuel for aviation turbo-engines. A comparative analysis for fuel mixtures made of Jet A + 5% Aeroshell 500 Oil (Ke) with 10%, 30%, and 50% for each bio-fuel type has been performed and Ke has been used as reference. Firstly, the following physical and chemical properties were determined: density, viscosity, flash point, freezing point, calorific power. Then, elemental analysis and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis were conducted for Ke, biodiesel obtained from recycled sunflower oil (SF), biodiesel obtained from blending recycled sunflower oil, and recycled palm oil (SFP), and for each fuel blend. Secondly, experimental tests of the blends have been conducted on the Jet Cat P80® micro-turbo engine (Gunt Hamburg, Barsbüttel, Germany). The tests have been conducted at different engine working regimes as follows: idle, cruise, intermediate, and maximum. For each regime, a one-minute testing period was chosen, and the engine parameters have been monitored. The turbo engine instrumentation recorded the temperature after the compressor and before the turbine, the fuel consumption and air flow, pressure inside the combustion chamber, and generated thrust. The burning efficiency and the specific consumption have been calculated for all four above-mentioned regimes and for all fuel blends. Two accelerometers have been installed on the engine’s support to register radial and axial vibrations allowing the assessment of engine stability.

“…Moreover, gasification converts the entire carbon content of the feedstock into syngas. The second advantage is that the product gas can be converted into a variety of fuels (biogas, H 2 , gasoline, synthetic diesel) and chemicals (methanol, urea) [7]. The other benefit of the gasification process is the lower CO 2 emission rate compared with incineration [8].…”

Gaining energy independence by utilizing new and renewable energy resources has become imperative for Korea. Energy recovery from Korean municipal solid waste (MSW) could be a promising option to resolve the issue, as Korean MSW is highly recyclable due to its systematic separation, collection and volume-based waste disposal system. In this study, gasification experiments were conducted on Korean municipal waste-derived solid fuel (SRF) using a fixed bed reactor by varying the equivalence ratio (ER) to assess the viability of syngas production. Experiments were also conducted on coal and biomass under similar conditions to compare the experimental results, as the gasification applicability of coal and biomass are long-established. Experimental results showed that Korean SRF could be used to recover energy in form of syngas. In particular, 50.94% cold gas efficiency and 54.66% carbon conversion ratio with a lower heating value of 12.57 MJ/Nm3 can be achieved by gasifying the SRF at 0.4 ER and 900 °C. However, compared to coal and biomass, the syngas efficiency of Korean SRF was less, which can be resolved by operating the gasification processes at high temperatures. If proper research and development activities are conducted on Korean SRF, it could be a good substitute for fossil fuels in the future.
