Influences of temperature and substrate particle content on granular sludge bed anaerobic digestion
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Influences of temperature (25–35 °C) and substrate particulate content (3.0–9.4 g total suspended solids (TSS)/L) on granular sludge bed anaerobic digestion (AD) were analyzed in lab-scale reactors using manure as a substrate ... -
Integrating Syngas Fermentation into a Single-Cell Microbial Electrosynthesis (MES) Reactor
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)This study presents a series of experiments to test the integration of syngas fermentation into a single-cell microbial electrosynthesis (MES) process. Minimal gas–liquid mass transfer is the primary bottleneck in such ... -
Intensifying rehabilitation of combined sewer systems using trenchless technology in combination with low impact development and green infrastructure
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Throughout Europe, there is a considerable need for investment in the upgrade of sewer systems – due to three main factors: ageing infrastructure, climate change and urban population growth. The need for investments is ... -
Investigation into optimal CO2 concentration for CO2 capture from aluminium production
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-08-05)Capture of CO2 from aluminum production has been simulated using Aspen Plus and Aspen Hysys. The technology used for aluminum production is the Hall-Héroult and the current cell design necessitates that large amounts of ... -
Investigation of bubbling behavior in deep fluidized beds at different gas velocities using electrical capacitance tomography
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Deep bubbling fluidized beds have some advantages that make them attractive for industrial applications. Using different powders, this paper investigates the bubbling behavior in deep beds. The results show that bubbles ... -
Investigation of flow behaviour in biomass gasifier using Electrical capacitance Tomography (ECT) and pressure sensors
(Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2011)The particles in a biomass gasifier are mainly a mixture of wood chips, char particles and bed material. The charwood particles have a significant lower density than the bed material, and also a wider range of particle ... -
Investigation of the segregation and mixing behavior of biomass in a bubbling fluidized bed reactor using a CPFD model
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Segregation of biomass in a gasification reactor is an inevitable problem that can jeopardize the advantages such as uniform temperature control and proper mass circulation, and good solid-gas contacting area of the fluidized ... -
Investigation of the shifting-parameter as a function of density in the fluidization of a packed bed
(Conference report, 2010)Accurate predictions of pressure drops in fluidized beds are of great importance in the industry. Up to date no satisfactory correlation exists to predict the pressure drop in a fluidized bed as the bed is traversing from ... -
Investigation of the shifting-parameter as a function of particle size distribution in a fluidized bed traversing from a fixed to fluidized bed
(Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2010)The particles in a biomass gasifier are mainly a mixture of wood chips, char particles and bed material. The charwood particles have a significant lower density than the bed material, and also a wider range of particle ... -
Investment cost estimates and investment decisions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2002)When evaluating new investment projects, oil companies traditionally use the discounted cashflow method. This method requires expected cashflows in the numerator and a risk-adjusted required rate of return in the denominator ... -
Kiln process impact of alternative solid fuel combustion in the cement kiln main burner - Mathematical modelling and full-scale experiment
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-02)Increased use of alternative fuels in cement kilns is a trend in the world. However, replacing fossil fuels like coal with different alternative fuels will give various impacts on the overall kiln process due to the fuel ... -
Laminar burning velocity of gases vented from failed Li-ion batteries
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)In the last decade, several fires and explosions caused by Li-ion batteries (LIBs) have been reported. This can be attributed to the thermal runaway and catastrophic failures of LIBs that release combustible gases, which ... -
Laminar burning velocity of the dimethyl carbonate–air mixture formed by the Li-ion electrolyte solvent
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)If a Li-ion cell fails and the electrolyte leaks out into air, a flammable premixed gas cloud can be formed. The electrolyte combustion energy is 65–70% of the total energy content of the cell. The main objective of this ... -
Life Cycle Assessment under Uncertainty: A Scoping Review
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Today, life cycle assessment (LCA) is the most widely used approach to model and calculate the environmental impacts of products and processes. The results of LCAs are often said to be deterministic, even though the real-life ... -
Liquefaction of lignocellulosic biomass for methane production: A review
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Hydrothermal pretreatment (HTP) (Hot water extraction (HWE) and steam pretreatment) and pyrolysis have the potential to liquefy lignocellulosic biomass. HTP produces hydrolysate, consisting mainly of solubilized hemicellulose, ... -
Low temperature methanol synthesis catalyzed by copper nanoparticles
