Dry reforming of methane (DRM) is an attractive route for H2 production and simultaneous CO2 utilization, but its practical implementation is limited by catalyst deactivation. This study experimentally investigates the catalytic performance of Ni/Al2...
Plastics pyrolysis is increasingly pursued as a pathway for producing circular hydrocarbon feedstocks for petrochemical integration. However, non-integrated reactor configurations often exhibit limited heat-transfer control, significant char-handling...
The permeability of coal seams plays a critical role in the efficiency of coalbed methane extraction and gas disaster prevention. Traditional permeability models often overlook the anisotropic and dynamic evolution characteristics of coal under varyi...
This study evaluates the impact of long-term storage on aviation fuel blends composed of Jet A and camelina-derived biodiesel. The physicochemical properties of the pure biodiesel were assessed according to EN 14214 and ASTM D6751 standards, while th...
Green hydrogen is increasingly discussed as an energy carrier that can link electricity, gas, heat, and transport sectors. However, many existing reviews address this topic from separate viewpoints, such as hydrogen production technologies, Artificia...
Two-Stage Anaerobic Digesters (TSADs) have emerged as an effective strategy for improving the stability and efficiency of biogas production from high-strength substrates such as food waste. The separation of acidogenic and methanogenic phases enables...
This study investigates improving the flowability of heavy crude oil using non-ionic surfactants that modify interfacial properties, thereby enhancing emulsification and dispersion. A mixture of Span 85 (HLB = 1.8) and Tween 20 (HLB = 16.7) was selec...
This study investigates whether countries converge toward common long-run paths in renewable energy consumption and examines the implications for global fuel transition dynamics. Using a balanced panel of 108 countries over the period 1990–2022...
Hydrotreatment is vital for producing high-quality liquid fuels in petroleum refining and its air coolers are critical components prone to severe corrosion under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions. Ammonium salts from NH3-HCl and NH3-H2S r...
The blending of naphtha and light fuel oil with gasoline and diesel during pipeline batch transportation poses risks of quality non-compliance. This study experimentally investigates the impact of these contaminants on key quality indicators to estab...
The transition towards alternative marine fuels introduces new safety challenges related to onboard storage, distribution, and fuel management, due to the markedly different physical and chemical properties of methane, methanol, ammonia, and hydrogen...
Ensuring the integrity of weld seams in pipeline components is critical for the safe and reliable transportation of oil and natural gas. This paper presents a systematic failure investigation of a cracked weld in a reducer located at a natural gas tr...
Ammonia, as a hydrogen carrier and clean fuel, has an increasingly urgent demand for large-scale transportation. Utilizing the existing refined oil pipeline network for sequential transportation of ammonia and refined oil is an economically and effic...
The growing demand for energy and emerging environmental concerns are making it necessary to look for more sustainable alternatives. To address the limitations of first-generation biofuels and reduce dependence on fossil fuels, this study focuses on...
In the Philippines’ agricultural setup, pre-harvest cacao (Theobroma cacao) fruits are wrapped with low-density polyethylene (LDPE) for moisture retention and damage protection. Responding to the growing concern for its waste volume and scarcit...
Bioenergy production from agro-industrial waste has the potential to contribute to climate change mitigation. In Brazil, the pequi (Caryocar brasiliense Camb.) production chain makes an economic, environmental, and social contribution. However, the c...
To investigate the synergistic effect of hydraulic fracturing and hot water injection on enhancing methane extraction from low-permeability coalbeds and elucidate the underlying thermal-hydraulic coupling mechanism, methane desorption experiments wer...
Fossil fuel depletion has increased interest in renewable alternatives such as biodiesel derived from non-edible plant oils. Droplet evaporation is a key process influencing fuel–air mixing and combustion efficiency in diesel engines. In this s...
The energy utilization of residual woody biomass is a relevant strategy for the decentralized energy transition and local waste management in rural areas. The objective of this study was to characterize (physically, chemically, and energetically) fiv...
The increasing need to reduce reliance on fossil-derived aviation fuels and mitigate environmental impacts has intensified research into renewable alternatives for aviation energy systems. The growing interest in ethanol-based fuels is primarily driv...
This work presents a mechanistic modeling approach for simulating methane emissions from triethylene glycol (TEG) dehydrators used in oil & gas (O&G) operations. The model was developed as a modular component of the Mechanistic Air Emissions...
Vibration-assisted water flooding (VA-WF) can improve sweep efficiency. However, unclear macro-scale mechanisms limit its wider adoption in heavy oil reservoirs. This study combines previous sandpack experiments with two-dimensional Volume-of-Fluid (...
The International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) greenhouse gas (GHG) strategy aims for a 40% reduction in carbon intensity by 2030 and a 70% reduction by 2050, relative to 2008 levels. Attainment of these objectives necessitates an integrated s...
