Abstract:
En gårdsbiogasanläggning har flera stora interna energiförbrukare. Tidigare forskning har visat att energibehovet för endast omblandning i en biogasanläggning kan uppgå till 1 % av biogasens energiinnehåll vilket är oerhört högt. En omrörningsstudie har genomförts där data som specifik omrörningseffekt (W/m3) och energiförbrukning (kWh/dag) har inhämtats ifrån verkliga fall och sedan jämförts emot varandra. Samband mellan större rötkammarvolymer och högre energiförbrukning per dag för omrörning kunde finnas. Samtidigt som kopplingar mellan mindre anläggningar och högre specifik omrörningseffek

In this pre-treatment step, solid biomass is heated in an inert atmosphere to between temperatures between 200 and 300°C resulting in the loss of low-energy volatiles and moisture improving fuel chemical and physical properties and i

L'humanité fait face à de nombreux défis dans le domaine de l'énergie: explosion de la demande, émissions de gaz à effet de serre, raréfaction de certaines ressources fossiles, pollution, etc. La réponse à ces défis passe en particulier par le développement de systèmes de conversion d'énergie à haute efficacité et à faibles impacts environnementaux. Elle requiert, de plus, la mise au point d'approches permettant d'évaluer ces impacts et de communiquer les résultats à un très large public. Le travail de thèse présenté est une contribution aux efforts menés pour satisfaire ces deux exigences. Il

Abstract:
Packed-bed digesters are an alternative to covered lagoon digesters for methane production and anaerobic treatment of dilute wastewaters such as dairy barn flush water. The physical media of packed-beds retain biofilms, often allowing increased treatment rates. Previous studies have evaluated several types of media for digestion of dilute wastewaters, but cost and media fouling have setback commercial development. A major operational cost has been effluent recirculation pumping. In the present effort, a novel approach to anaerobic digestion of flush dairy water was developed at pilot-scale:

Abstract:
Biomass has become an increasingly important renewable source of energy forenhanced energy security and reduced CO[subscript]2 emissions. Gasification is at the core of many biomass utilisation technologies for such purposes as the generation of electricity and the production of hydrogen, liquid fuels and chemicals. However, gasification faces a number of technical challenges to become a commercially feasible renewable energy technology. The most important one is the presence of tar in the gasification product gas. The ultimate purpose of this thesis was to investigate the catalytic reforming
