Biomass energy potential of forest harvest residue in Northwestern Ontario
Woody biomass contributes less than 6% of total energy production in Canada. Based on previous data relating to the supply, quality and economic potential, this compilation of relevant data provides an estimation on the ... -
Catalytic gasification of biomass for the production of syngas with reduced tar formation
(2009)With increased concerns over greenhouse gas emission and decreasing fossil fuel supplies, biomass is increasingly seen as an alternative option for energy and chemical production. There are several technologies available ... -
Co-firing of lignite with peat and white pine in a pilot scale bubbling fluidized bed air - emissions and feedstock reactivity
(2010)The increasing awareness of the environmental impact of fossil fuels (mainly coal) combustion, which leads to high levels of CO 2 , NO x , SO 2 , mercury and particulate emissions, has motivated research for potential ... -
Comparative analysis of wood pellet parameters: Canadian case study
(2014-01-22)Canada is one of the world leaders in wood pellet production and export, however, domestic consumption is extremely low. In addition there is no national standard in Canada for wood pellets. The Canadian government announced ... -
Hydrodeoxygenation process for converting glycerol into bio-crude / by Matthew A. Tymchyshyn.
(2010)"Bio-energy is a clean (containing negligible sulfur and being near-carbon neutral), renewable and abundant source of energy. Bio-energy can be a potential alternative to fossil fuels for the production of energy and ... -
Production of bio-crude from forestry waste by hydro-liquefaction in sub-/super-critical methanol and upgrading of bio-crude by hydro-treating
(2009)Bio-energy is renewable and clean (with trace amount of sulfur and neutral in terms of CO2 emission), and abundant in resource, thus it could be a securable and sustainable energy for future. Due to the declining reserve ...
