Polygeneration system for chemical and power co-production has been regarded as one of the promising technologies for fossil fuel sustainable utilization. In this paper, a new polygeneration system with carbon capture is integrated, based on coal gas and coke oven gas inputs for methanol and...

An outwardly propagating spherical flame configuration has been used to characterise the combustion of different blended steelworks gas compositions, under atmospheric ambient conditions. A nonlinear extrapolative technique was used to obtain values of laminar burning speed and Markstein length...

Energy crisis and threats of global warming has accelerated the thrust for new renewable energy resources. Recycling greenhouse gases seems eminently potential to produce sustainable fuels as well as to reduce carbon emission. Various possibilities for implementing low carbon economy drive by...

Over recent years there has been a significant increase in the amount of technology contributing to lower emissions of carbon dioxide. The aim of this paper is to provide a comparison between two technologies for methanol production, both of which use carbon dioxide and hydrogen as initial raw...

By synthetically combining the utilization of different fuels and the co-production of alternative fuels and power, a multifunctional energy system (MES) can present more opportunities to achieve higher efficiency, lower investment, and less environmental impact as compared to traditional energy...

Polygeneration systems are commonly found in chemical and energy industry. These systems often involve chemical conversions and energy conversions. Studies of these systems are interdisciplinary, mainly involving fields of chemical engineering, energy engineering, environmental science, and...

Polygeneration system for chemical and power co-production has been regarded as one of promising technologies to use fossil fuel more efficiently and cleanly. In this paper the thermodynamic and economic performances of three types of coal-based polygeneration system were investigated and the...

A new kind of natural gas-based polygeneration system for methanol and power production is proposed in this paper. With the sequential connection between chemical production and power generation, the new system adopts innovative integration of partial-reforming and partial-recycle scheme in...

Lignite-based polygeneration system has been considered as a feasible technology to realize clean and efficient utilization of coal resources. A newly polygeneration system has been proposed, featuring the combination of a 2×300MW circulating fluidized bed (CFB) power plant and atmospheric...

The share of renewable liquid fuels (ethanol, fatty acid methyl ester, biogas, and renewable electricity) in the total transportation fuel in Sweden, has increased by the end of 2009 to such level that e.g. domestic bioethanol production is unable to satisfy current ethanol fuel demand. Regional...
