Turning biomass like switchgrass and other plants into usable fuel is no easy feat. Gasification, one method of converting feedstocks to fuels, traditionally produces greenhouse gas emissions and ...

Gasification is a process that converts carbonaceous fuels into an energy dense mixture of gases or synthesis gas (syngas) and has been around for nearly 200 years. Some of the first applications of ...

Landfill is both ugly and polluting. But a new breed of technology promises to make it a thing of the past, transforming a huge portion of landfill material into clean gas. It's thanks to a process ...

The production of hydrogen from biomass has garnered increasing attention, with thermochemical methods emerging as the most widely adopted approach. Among these, steam gasification stands out as a ...

Biomass gasification encompasses a suite of thermochemical routes that convert organic feedstocks—ranging from woody residues to agricultural waste—into synthesis gas (syngas), principally a mixture ...

With steel, chemicals & fertilisers, ceramics, glass, and various other industries reeling under inadequate gas availability, experts have called for fast-tracking coal gasification projects to boost ...

Since 2019, one of the hottest topics in the energy realm has been hydrogen, and for good reason. Due to a variety of factors, the element has been recognized as a key piece of decarbonization ...

Coal gasification is an alternate process of producing energy using coal. With the Indian government encouraging employing it nationwide, it’s important to know what coal gasification is and why it's ...

Dirty it may be, but coal is cheap. For this simple reason, it remains the world's main source of power, providing a quarter of our primary energy and more than 40% of our electricity. And it will ...

A new chemical process can transform three of the most common plastics into high-purity hydrogen without sorting them first. The technique operates at much lower temperatures than traditional ...
