Successful testing of a new refractory lining material developed by the Office of Fossil Energy’s National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) could lead to higher reliability and improved economics ...

EVERETT — After three years of trial and error, the city of Edmonds may begin consistently operating the gasification system at its wastewater treatment plant this month. On Tuesday, the Edmonds City ...

When the city of Berkeley kept shutting off power to Jim Mason’s unconventionally-zoned artists’ compound, he took matters into his own hands; he built a gasifier to turn plant waste into a source of ...

Thermochemical gasification transforms solid biomass into a versatile synthesis gas or “syngas” by partial oxidation at elevated temperatures. Gasifier designs—ranging from fixed-bed and fluidised-bed ...

Coal remains the most stable low-cost source of energy, but its lower qualities challenge users to meet stringent environmental regulations. The first step in any modification or fuel switching of a ...

We were pleased to report in “Homemade Motor Fuel Through Wood Gasification” that our experiments concerning the use of wood scraps for vehicle motor fuel showed promise. But little did we realize, at ...

Plasma gasification converts carbon-containing materials - such as coal, petroleum coke and municipal solid waste or biomass - into a synthesis gas (syngas) composed primarily of carbon monoxide and ...

As part of the continuing global rollout of LanzaTech’s technology to capture carbon dioxide emissions and turn those emissions into fuel and chemicals, the company is rolling out a new small-scale ...
