“…If tar is a concern in the application of the producer gas, a higher ER is desirable (0.3-0.4 [38]) so that the reaction operates at a higher temperature, which favors tar cracking [33]. The response surface method which is a statistical technique that employs regression analysis based on mathematical relations is used to optimize values of input factors like temperature and equivalence ratio for optimal system performance [39].…”

Biomass wastes offer immense potential as a renewable energy source, holding the promise to replace fossil fuels for heat and energy generation, in particular for decentralized power production. Furthermore, the utilization of biomass promotes circular economy by enabling the conversion of local resources into useful products and energy. However, the conversion of biomass into end-use products and heat/energy is a complex process with multiple pathways, such as fluidized bed gasification, a well-established and efficient method for converting coal and biomass into heat. Despite its merits, this process is currently limited to industrial applications and encounters certain limitations and obstacles. Notably, the low energy density of biomass wastes and downstream pipe contamination from tar and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) growth poses significant technological challenges. Nonetheless, a roadmap has been developed to guide the widespread adoption of fluidized bed gasification of biomass for decentralized power generation and climate mitigation. This book chapter delves into the opportunities and challenges of fluidized bed gasification as a viable option for decentralized power generation and climate mitigation through biomass waste conversion. The significance of well-crafted policies supporting renewable energy sources and optimizing fluidized bed gasifiers to achieve desirable end products are also emphasized.

“…Of the reviewed studies that applied data-driven methods to model RRCC technologies, 20% (36% statistical and 64% ML methods) represented models that predicted syngas yield through the gasification of various feedstocks (Figure a and Table S9). Gasification was most frequently modeled by applying MPR ,− using primary data and ANN ,− using both primary and secondary data. These MPR and ANN models respectively, comprised 33% and 36% of the data-driven gasification models (Figure a and Table S9).…”

Municipal and agricultural organic waste can be treated to recover energy, nutrients, and carbon through resource recovery and carbon capture (RRCC) technologies such as anaerobic digestion, struvite precipitation, and pyrolysis. Data science could benefit such technologies by improving their efficiency through data-driven process modeling along with reducing environmental and economic burdens via life cycle assessment (LCA) and techno-economic analysis (TEA), respectively. We critically reviewed 616 peer-reviewed articles on the use of data science in RRCC published during 2002−2022. Although applications of machine learning (ML) methods have drastically increased over time for modeling RRCC technologies, the reviewed studies exhibited significant knowledge gaps at various model development stages. In terms of sustainability, an increasing number of studies included LCA with TEA to quantify both environmental and economic impacts of RRCC. Integration of ML methods with LCA and TEA has the potential to costeffectively investigate the trade-off between efficiency and sustainability of RRCC, although the literature lacked such integration of techniques. Therefore, we propose an integrated data science framework to inform efficient and sustainable RRCC from organic waste based on the review. Overall, the findings from this review can inform practitioners about the effective utilization of various data science methods for real-world implementation of RRCC technologies.

The research in energy storage and conversion is playing a critical role in energy policy as the innovation and technological progress are essential for achieving the energy transition and climate neutrality goals. Hydrogen Fuel Cell technology is considered a strategic element in the pursuit of sustainable and clean energy solutions. This technology is increasingly gaining attention in recent years as a potential substitute to conventional non‐renewable energy sources. Fuel cell technology can be employed for domestic/commercial use along with powering the transportation sector which currently employs the use of conventional battery systems. However, these systems pose severe limitations with respect to longer charging times and limited distance range. This review article aims at providing a comprehensive methodical overview of hydrogen‐based fuel cell technology along with key concepts, present day scenarios, including overview of the market and industry trends, government policies and initiatives, along with major stakeholders involved in scaling up the technology for mass consumption. The outlook of fuel cells, including their capability to revolutionise the energy sector is discussed. The technological advancements and breakthroughs on the horizon along with the challenges and safety concerns related to the widespread acceptance of fuel cells are analysed.
