A techno-economic assessment of hydrogen production from hydropower in western Canada for the upgrading of bitumen from oil sands
Download2016-01-01
Olateju, Babatunde, Kumar, Amit
The demand for hydrogen in conventional and unconventional oil refining industries is considerable. Currently, the predominant source of hydrogen is from fossil fuel production pathways, in particular, steam methane reforming (SMR), which incurs a significant greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions...

This study explores the hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of wood chips to bio-crude followed by upgrading to diluents, which are used to transport bitumen through pipelines. In this study, we considered a 2000 dry t day-1 plant capacity with two scenarios. The first scenario uses hydrogen for...

Agbor, Ezinwa, Oyedun, Adetoyese Olajire, Zhang, Xiaolei, Kumar, Amit
Displacement of fossil fuel-based power through biomass co-firing could reduce the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from fossil fuels. In this study, data-intensive techno-economic models were developed to evaluate different co-firing technologies as well as the configurations of these...
