Evaluation of Mercury Capture Technology Using Various Sorbents Injection

Nov 2, 2012
Xiaofei Wang
Coal combustion is a single largest known anthropogenic source for mercury (Hg) emission. Recently, US EPA has proposed Mercury and Air Toxics Standards (MATS) in order to regulate emissions of Hg and other pollutants. Many Hg control technologies have been developed, such as activated carbon...

Aqueous Morpholine As a Potential Post-Combustion CO2 Absorption Solution

Nov 1, 2012
Krishna Mohan Jinka
Due primarily to high cyclic capacity and high absorption rates compared to other methods, aqueous amine based CO 2 capture has gained great interest for application to post-combustion CO 2 capture. While aqueous amines have a long history for acid gas removal, challenges remain for the commercial...

Mass Transfer Evaluation of CO2 Absorption in a Wetted Wall Column

Nov 1, 2012
Reynolds A. Frimpong
The chemical absorption of CO 2 in solvents is considered as one of the mature process options for reducing CO 2 emissions in power plants. Solvents with fast mass transfer rates and high CO 2 carrying capacity are therefore desired and continue to be explored to reduce equipment size and its...

Engineering Complex Phenotypes in Industrial Strains

November, 2012
This book explains current trends and developments in engineering biocatalysts for the production of bulk chemical and biofuels from renewable biomass. The authors guide readers through the engineering of the complex traits and phenotypes needed for particular biocatalysts and bioprocesses.

Pipe Flow: A Practical and Comprehensive Guide

Understanding Why Bulk Solids Behave Differently Than Liquids

AIChE Webinar
Apr 25, 2012
Eric Maynard

Providing insights into why bulk solids behave differently than liquids, this webinar introduces concepts regarding powder flow testing, bin/silo design, feeder integration, and mechanisms of powder segregation.

Modeling of LNG Spills Into Trenches and Troughs

Apr 5, 2012
Nicolas F. Ponchaut
Trenches and troughs are commonly used in LNG storage and transfer facilities to contain potential LNG spills. The trenches are concrete-lined rectangular channels dug into the ground. They are typically slightly inclined from the horizontal to direct the flow of LNG towards the sump and they are...
