Realizing the Potential of Advanced Biofuels

Oct 18, 2011
Thomas Foust
Advanced biofuels or drop-in fuels is the terminology used to refer to hydrocarbon fuels that are direct replacements or supplements for existing gasoline, diesel and jet fuels currently refined from conventional petroleum feedstocks. Drop-in fuels from biomass will need to meet all of the refinery...

Imidazole and Imidazole-Amine Hybrid Solvents for CO2 Capture

Oct 18, 2011
Jason E. Bara
Imidazoles and imidazole-amine hybrids are unique classes of organic solvents that feature properties similar to aqueous amine solvents and ionic liquids (ILs), both of which have received a great deal of attention for CO2 capture applications. However, to date, the utility of the imidazole...

The Role of Acidic Catalyst Support On the Catalytic Upgrading of Bio-Oils

Oct 18, 2011
Sunya Boonyasuwat
Catalytic conversion of bio-oil vapor has attracted considerable interest as a promising pathway for upgrading. In this work, the reaction of anisole and guaiacol, phenolic model compounds commonly existing in bio-oils, were studied over an acidic silica-alumina catalyst and at varying space times...

Torrefaction of Switchgrass As a Pretreatment for Catalytic Upgrading of Pyrolysis

Oct 18, 2011
Lance Lobban
The objective of this work is to use thermal pretreatment to separate the complex bio-oil mixture to produce less complex vapor streams of products from 1. light oxygenates (small aldehydes, acids) , 2. furan derivatives, and 3. phenolics. The selective production of products by thermal treatment...

New Design for Advanced Zero Emission Power Plant Concept

Oct 18, 2011
Wei Chen
The most significant anthropogenic greenhouse gas is CO 2 , which arises mainly from the use of fossil fuels. A new technology called Advanced Zero Emission Power Plant (AZEP) targeting CO 2 capture and storage (CCS) is being developed. In the AZEP concept, CO 2 -diluted O 2 is used to combust the...
