Utilization of biomass waste for activated carbon production by steam gasification in a rotary reactor: experimental and theoretical approach

Shanhui Zhao et al.

Summary: Cheap activated carbon for dioxin adsorption in waste incinerator was produced by steam gasification of waste plywood, pinewood, and coconut shell. The yield and properties of activated carbon were influenced by temperature, steam flow rate, and activation time. Experimental results showed that plywood activated carbon had a higher yield and similar pore structure as pinewood activated carbon, making it suitable for dioxin adsorption. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and discrete element method (DEM) were used for modeling and optimization of the rotary furnace, which showed that both methods could simulate particle movement in the furnace.

The optimization of in-situ tar reduction and syngas production on a 60-kW three-staged biomass gasification system: theoretical and practical approach

Shanhui Zhao et al.

Summary: The study found that a well-designed biomass gasification system can improve gasification efficiency and carbon conversion rate, while reducing tar yield. Reasonable air injection methods can enhance the flow field in the furnace and eliminate flow stagnation zones near the wall, benefiting tar cracking in the throat section.

Techno-economic analysis of biomass processing with dual outputs of energy and activated carbon

Li Liu et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates the production of activated carbon (AC) and fuel gas using spent mushroom substrate with two different processes, showing that air activation offers economic advantages but requires careful assessment of temperature control and operational stability risks. Flue gas activation is more reliable and beneficial for long-term operation, generating less CO2.
