Fall 2013
This work is divided into two parts: (1) Synthesis of amine functionalized adsorbents using grafting technique for post-combustion CO2 capture, (2) Performance evaluation of structured bed configuration with straight gas flow channels using amine impregnated adsorbent for post-combustion CO2...

Pyrolysis of asphaltenes in an atmospheric entrained flow reactor: A study on gasification reactivity and properties of chars
DownloadFall 2014
Solvent deasphalting, followed by asphaltenes gasification, has been recommended as a favorable alternative to coker based upgrading processes. However, very limited work has been carried out on pyrolysis and gasification of asphaltenes, at entrained flow conditions. The present work aims at...

Steam Regeneration of Amine Impregnated Silica Based Sorbents for Post Combustion CO2 Capture
DownloadFall 2014
In this study, an experimental investigation of CO2 capture using amine functionalized mesoporous silica based sorbents was carried out. Polyethyleneimine (PEI) impregnated silica sorbents were synthesized and tested in TGA under different adsorption temperatures and partial pressures of CO2....

Fall 2020
The depletion of fossil fuels as well as the greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuel use have led to growing interest in biofuel production from biomass. A new technology, thermo-catalytic reforming (TCR), is one of the contributing interests. TCR technology integrates intermediate pyrolysis...

Use of thermogravimetric analyzer and high temperature furnace as an alternative to the coke reactivity index test and study on effect of binders in metallurgical coke making
DownloadSpring 2019
Metallurgical coke, a porous carbon material produced by carbonization of coking coal at high temperature, generally above 900 ○C, is an integral part of iron-making in the blast furnace. During iron making, coke serves several important roles in the blast furnace such as a source of energy, as a...

Fall 2014
Recent interest in the use of post-underground coal gasification (UCG) sites for carbon capture and storage (CCS) has created a need to fundamentally understand the carbon dioxide (CO2) adsorption on gasified and pyrolysed coal chars. More specifically, in this work, the effect of coal properties...

Fall 2015
The main aim of this work is experimental and numerical study of heat and mass transfer in fixed beds by the Joule heating effect, which is a volume-based type of heating rather than surface-based. This is aimed at looking more into energy storage technologies where electrical energy is stored as...

Simulation and performance characterization of air dense medium fluidized bed for coal beneficiation
DownloadFall 2014
The dry coal beneficiation method, Air Dense Medium Fluidized Bed (ADMFB) system, can offer an efficient solution for removal of ash forming minerals from run of mine (ROM) coal to improve coal quality and alleviate application issues and footprint. The investigation has been performed in several...

Study of Bio-densification Process in Oil Sands Tailings: Modeling and Experimental Validation
DownloadFall 2012
Slow densification of mature fine tailings (MFT) is one of the major challenges in reduction of tailings inventory, pore-water recovery and reclamation of tailings for oil sands industry. Bio-densification is a new treatment method in which densification of tailings is accelerated through...

Fall 2018
Underground coal gasification (UCG) is a process of ‘in-situ’ conversion of coal into gaseous products with usable heating value through combustion with oxygen/air and gasification with steam. From the economic and environmental point of view, UCG is a highly promising clean energy technology...
