Sub- and Super-critical Water Depolymerization of Biomass
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2010)
Biomass may be converted to more useful fuel and chemicals via thermochemical decomposition and biological digestion. Thermochemical conversion processes include three sub-categories: pyrolysis, gasification, and direct ...
Energy issues in energy education
(SILA SCIENCE, 2011)
The main objective of education is to prepare people for future. Energy is the indispensable part of every society and it reflects the living standards and development level of the society. The energy concept, introduced ...
Methane hydrates as potential energy resource: Part 1-Importance, resource and recovery facilities
(ELSEVIER, 2010)
Gas hydrates are ice-like crystalline solids that form from mixtures of water and light natural gases such as methane, carbon dioxide, ethane, propane and butane. Methane was the dominant component among other hydrocarbon ...
Competitive liquid biofuels from biomass
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2011)
The cost of biodiesels varies depending on the feedstock, geographic area, methanol prices, and seasonal variability in crop production. Most of the biodiesel is currently made from soybean, rapeseed, and palm oils. However, ...
The Role of Turkey Within Petroleum Between the Caspian Sea Basin and the Middle East
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2010)
Petroleum plays a very important role in foreign policies and their international relations of Caspian and Middle East countries. The Middle East itself produces
32% of the world’s oil, but even more impressive is they ...
Use of algae as biofuel sources
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2010)
The aim of this study is to investigate the algae production technologies such as open, closed and hybrid systems, production costs, and algal energy conversions. Liquid biofuels are alternative fuels promoted with potential ...
Methylation of wood fatty and resin acids for production of biodiesel
(ELSEVIER, 2011)
The purpose of the present paper is to evaluate the potentiality of the wood oil of Oriental spruce (Spruce
orientalis) for biodiesel production. Two methods have been applied for obtained wood oil with and without solvent ...
High quality water supply for the production of algae
(SILA SCIENCE, 2011)
Microalgae are unique photosynthetic organisms given that they accumulate storage lipids in substantial quantities and thrive in high salinity water. Algae cultivation is flexible on water quality. Many species of algae ...
Biorefinery Technologies for Biomass Upgrading
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2010)
Biomass can be converted into useful bio-fuels and bio-chemicals via
biomass upgrading and biorefinery technologies. Biomass upgrading processesinclude
fractionation, liquefaction, pyrolysis, hydrolysis, fermentation, ...
Direct and Alkaline Glycerol Liquefaction of Hazelnut Shell
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2010)
Hazelnut shell was liquefied directly in water at 530–710 K and in glycerol
and alkaline (10% sodium carbonate) glycerol at 523–603 K temperature range.
Thermal degradation of biomass, cellulose, hemicelluloses, and ...
