This review presents the technical and operational performances of solar and biomass energy technologies viz photovoltaic thermal (PVT) and biomass gasification systems. This work aims to offer a reference and guidelines to the renewable energy‐related players, especially for those at the operational level and investors. This paper highlights the technical advantage of hybrid PVT with phase change material in terms of electrical and thermal efficiencies. While the operational performance of biomass gasification is thoroughly discussed via sensitivity analysis, the potential integration between solar and biomass gasification technologies is explored to complement and bolster the capabilities of both renewable systems within the power energy mix portfolio. Finally, few directions and significant takeaways considering the technical criteria are addressed for identifying efficient renewable energy generation.

“…The use of corn cob is limited for use as building material and activated carbon [87,88]. Maize cobs constitute more environmental problems in areas where corn is produced commercially [89]. The cellulose and hemicellulose content in maize cob is high except the lignin content that is low [90].…”

Poultry Farming - New Perspectives and Applications

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The world’s demand for poultry products is increasing at an alarming rate, therefore the need for innovations to mitigate the required inputs for sustaining this demand. The challenges of poultry farming attributed to their health, and nutritional requirement is vital to successful poultry production either at a subsistence or at a commercial level. Feed accounts for about 70–80% of the overall production costs. Meeting the nutritional requirements of poultry impacts positively on their health performance. Adequate feeding enables the birds attain table weight earlier than their counterpart that are poorly fed, which could be profitable or not as it depends on the costs of inputs in each production cycle. The essence of poultry farming to an investor is to make profit; however, should poultry farmers continuously make profit, they need to apply workable alternatives suitable for the conventional inputs such as protein, energy sources, plant extracts for orthodox medication, and brooding materials.

“…The percentage of fixed carbon fine coal was lower than raw coal because fine coal was a waste from the coal mining process, but it was much higher than biomass such as corn cob, coconut shell, palm kernel shell, palm empty fruit bunch, and others. [17]- [19]. Fixed carbon in a material affects the HHV value of the fuel [20].…”

Fine coal waste from the coal mining process has not been used as clean energy even though the amount is very abundant in the world. The conversion of fine coal to syngas is a new way to increase the value of fine coal. Syngas composition, gas ratio, gasification efficiency, and heating value of syngas have been determined under various conditions of temperature (550-750 °C) and bentonite catalyst ratio (0-0.25). The results indicate that fine coal is the suitable raw material for the gasification process. At the highest temperature (750 °C), the gas composition consists of 42.6 vol% H2, 19.1vol% CO, 19.5 vol% CH4, and 7.9vol% CO2. The best performance was achieved when the catalyst/feed ratio is 0.25 with the gas composition of 54.3vol% H2, 26.2vol% CO, 23.8 vol% CH4, and 3.5vol% CO2, heating value and gasification efficiency were 19.72 MJ/Nm3 and 72.27% at 750 °C.
