• A milestone for new carbon-dioxide capture/clean coal technology

  An innovative new process that releases the energy in coal without burning — while capturing carbon dioxide, the major greenhouse gas — has passed a milestone on the route to possible commercial use, scientists are reporting. Their study in the ACS journal Energy & Fuels describes results of a succe more

• bioliq pilot plant: Successful operation of high-pressure entrained flow gasification
  

  On the way to the production of environment-friendly fuels from biomass residue, the Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT), in cooperation with the technology partner Air Liquide Global E&C Solutions has realized another important milestone: the second process stage of the bioliq® pilot plant is more

• New coal technology harnesses energy without burning, nears pilot-scale development
  

  A new form of clean coal technology reached an important milestone recently, with the successful operation of a research-scale combustion system at Ohio State University. The technology is now ready for testing at a larger scale. For 203 continuous hours, the Ohio State combustion unit produced heat more

• Compositional Analysis and Advanced Distillation Curve for Mixed Alcohols Produced via Syngas on a K-CoMoSx Catalyst

  The distillation behavior of mixed alcohols was studied by use of the Advanced Distillation Curve (ADC) methodology. Crude mixed alcohols (oxygenates) were generated from syngas over a potassium-promoted cobalt–molybdenum-sulfide catalyst and assayed for major and minor products. Distillation (boili more

• Characteristics of NO‐reduction by tar‐included syngas from an updraft gasifier

  Experiments of nitric oxide reduction by the tar‐included syngas from a small biomass updraft gasifier have been carried out on a tubular reactor under a temperature range of 900 to 1200°C. The initial mole fraction of NO was 1000 ppm and that of the oxygen and gasification syngas were varied. Com more

• Anaerobic CO2 fixation by the acetogenic bacterium Moorella thermoacetica

  Abstract Anaerobic bacteria such as Moorella thermoacetica have the capacity of fixing carbon dioxide with carbon monoxide and hydrogen for the production of ethanol, acetic acid, and other useful chemicals. In this study we evaluated the fixation of CO2 for the production of acetic acid, as a p more
