Green and High Efficient Enzyme Hydrolysis Process for Sweet Sorghum Bagasse

Oct 19, 2011
Xinshu Zhuang
In order to improve enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency, several approaches including liquid hot water (LHW) pretreatment, adding surfactant, magnetic stirring and fed-batch hydrolysis were investigated, in which Sweet sorghum bagasse (SSB) was chosen as the feedstock. The experiment results showed...

Evaluation of Organic Rankine Cycle Geothermal Power Plant and Considerations

Oct 19, 2011
Kirtipal Barse
The objective of this work is to evaluate the feasibility of an Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) power plant to generate electricity from low flow rates of a geothermal resource (~875 gpm) at low temperatures (T~100°C). A model of ORC was developed using HYSYS process simulator. DOE’s Cost of Renewable...

Modeling of Asphaltene Deposition In a Vertical Tubing

Oct 19, 2011
Dmitry Eskin
Asphaltene deposition phenomena are investigated both theoretically and experimentally. A Couette device, where the inner cylinder rotates and particles deposit on the outer wall, is used for laboratory studies of the deposition process. The modeling approach, recently proposed by the authors (...

The Role of Oxygen In the Stability of Biomass Pyrolysis Oils

Oct 18, 2011
Foster Agblevor
One of the major challenges in the conversion of biomass pyrolysis to high value products and fuels is the poor stability of the oils. Biomass pyrolysis oils have shown increases in viscosity during storage at ambient conditions and when heated above ambient temperature. The poor stability of the...
