• Aspen Plus Simulation of Biomass Gasification with known Reaction Kinetic 

      Eikeland, Marianne Sørflaten; Thapa, Rajan Kumar; Halvorsen, Britt (Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2015-11-25)
      The energy from biomass can be utilized through the thermochemical conversion processes of pyrolysis and gasification. The Aspen Plus simulation tool is applicable for simulation of the gasification processes. The most ...
    • Bubbling Fluidized Bed Behaviour for Biomass Gasification 

      Agu, Cornelius Emeka (Doctoral dissertations at the University of South-Eastern Norway;35, Doctoral thesis, 2019-06-21)
      The need to cut down the high dependency on the fossil fuels requires sustainable alternative energy resources. Aside that the stock of fossil fuels is depreciable, the energy source also accounts for the major contribution ...
    • Characterization of biomass wood 

      Haugen, Hildegunn H.; Furuvik, Nora Cecilie Ivarsdatter; Moldestad, Britt Margrethe Emilie (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      Biomass is a renewable energy resource and can replace the use of fossil fuels, such as coal. Overgrown forests and fields are about to become a noticeable problem, because the rate of woodcutting is too low compared with ...
    • Grønn produksjon av dimetyleter (DME) – Indirekte konvertering av syntesegass fra biomasse 

      Trasti, Eivind Johan Rokstad; Numme, Oliver; Larsen, Sebastian (Bachelor thesis, 2023)
      Dimethyl ether (DME) and other synthetic fuels are essential for the transition to a fossil-free transport sector. DME brings with it several advantages in today´s infrastructure and is well comparable with diesel in ...
    • Simulation and parameter optimization of fluidized-bed and biomass gasification 

      Bandara, Janitha (Doctoral dissertations at the University of South-Eastern Norway;92, Doctoral thesis, 2021-04-27)
      This thesis gives an insight to experimental studies and computational particle fluid dynamic (CPFD) simulations of fluidized bed and fluidized bed gasification reactors. CPFD models were validated against experimental ...
    • Simulation of Gasification of Livestock Manure with Aspen Plus 

      Haugen, Hildegunn H.; Halvorsen, Britt; Eikeland, Marianne Sørflaten (Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2015-11-25)
      Gasification is a flexible technology where all types of organic waste including biomass from manure can be used as feed to the reactor. The recovery of energy from solid waste offers several benefits including substantial ...
    • Simulation of Simplified Model for Reaction Kinetics in Biomass Gasification 

      Agu, Cornelius Emeka; Thapa, Rajan Kumar; Halvorsen, Britt (Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2015-11-25)
      Due to complexity in interactions between solid particles and between particles and carrier fluid, modeling of biomass gasification kinetics has been shown to be very challenging. Some commercial packages such as Barracuda ...
