Hydrogen and syngas production from glycerol through microwave plasma gasification

Simultaneous dissociation of CO2 and H2O to syngas in a surface-wave microwave discharge

“…Plasma (sustained by microwave source) was used for production of syngas from other materials, i.e. from glycerol [23] or from gasification of brown coal [24].…”

“…Yoon et al [16] studied the location of material supply to the reactor. Supplying fuel close to the plasma injection caused an increase in hydrogen and syngas production.…”

Conversion of residues and by-products from the biodiesel industry into value-added products

“…On the other hand, microwave plasma gasification is a technology that utilizes plasma flames produced by external electrical sources to gasify substrates. Crude glycerol microwave plasma gasification demonstrated an increment in gasification efficiency and Syngas heating value (Yoon et al 2013). Another type of gasification is supercritical water gasification.…”
