An integrated power-to-low-carbon hydrogen process is proposed in which a natural gas–fired Allam–Fetvedt (AF) supercritical carbon dioxide (CO2) cycle supplies electricity and process water to low- and high-temperature electrolyzers base...
The transition to renewable energy is essential for mitigating greenhouse gas emissions and advancing carbon neutrality. Lignocellulosic biomass offers an abundant and sustainable feedstock for biofuel production, but its inherent recalcitrance deman...
Raw and torrefied faeces from four zoo animals (giraffe, deer, camel, reindeer) and a sample of zebra manure pellets were studied to assess their energy potential using combustion calorimetry and thermoanalytical (TG/DTA) methods. Marked differences...
Microalgae-based wastewater treatment represents a sustainable approach for simultaneous nutrient removal and biodiesel feedstock production. This study evaluated the growth, total organic carbon (TOC) removal, FAME productivity, fatty acid compositi...
Lithium-ion batteries are widely used in electric mobility, renewable energy integration, portable electronics, and renewable–hydrogen hybrid energy systems. Despite significant advances in battery materials and design, long-term degradation re...
Elemental mercury (Hg0) removal in coal combustion flue-gas over commercial V-based SCR catalysts is still limited by insufficient low-temperature activity and the complex interference of gas components. In this work, V2O5/TiO2, V2O5−MoO3/TiO2,...
The present study experimentally investigates the influence of n-octanol addition to Jet-A fuel on the combustion performance and emission behavior of a micro-turboprop-based hybrid UAV (“Unmanned Aerial Vehicle”) power system. The experi...
Supercritical CO2 injection can mitigate depletion-induced deterioration of shale oil, but the relationship between laboratory-scale fluid-property changes and field-scale recovery remains insufficiently understood. This study integrates time-lapse p...
This study presents a comparative thermochemical and combustion analysis of biomass pellets derived from softwood, hardwood, sunflower husks, wheat straw, and lavender residues. This investigation was performed using thermogravimetric analysis (TG),...
Addressing the safety limitations and operational challenges associated with online particulate matter sampling in high-pressure natural gas pipelines, this paper proposes and systematically investigates a non-intrusive, safe sampling alternative uti...
Coal-fired power plants equipped with selective catalytic reduction (SCR) and wet flue-gas desulfurization (WFGD) can co-control mercury, but performance is limited by incomplete upstream Hg0 oxidation and downstream re-emission. This study evaluated...
Child-well stimulation design has become a central challenge in mature unconventional reservoirs, where infill wells are commonly completed in reservoirs that have already been modified by parent-well production. Prior depletion changes pore pressure...
This study employs numerical simulations to systematically investigate the combustion characteristics of methane/ethanol blended fuel–air mixtures under non-premixed turbulent conditions. The effects of the methane blending ratio on the flow-fi...
Improving gasoline octane quality is essential for modern spark-ignition engines, as increased knock resistance supports better efficiency, optimized combustion, and reduced fuel consumption. Environmental concerns have increased the demand for clean...
The increasing interest in carbon-free fuels has positioned ammonia as a promising energy carrier for Internal Combustion Engines (ICEs), particularly in hard-to-abate sectors such as Heavy-Duty (HD) transport and maritime applications. However, its...
Effective management of dairy manure is crucial for reducing environmental and public health risks. This waste material can serve as a viable source of bioenergy via anaerobic digestion. The recalcitrance of lignocellulosic fiber in manure presents c...
In this work, the use of biodiesel derived from Acacia sieberiana (commonly referred to as “Bagaruwa”) seed oil is presented as a potential renewable fuel for compression ignition engines. The biodiesel was produced using transesterificat...
The lower flammability limit (LFL) is critical for assessing ignition and explosion risks associated with lithium-ion battery thermal runaway gases. In this study, a primary experimental LFL database containing 58 data points for H2–CO–CH...
Filter cake is a nutrient-rich solid byproduct generated during sugarcane juice clarification, representing both a challenge and an opportunity for the sugar–energy industry. This study presents a systematic bibliometric analysis of global rese...
Traditional hypergolic propellants, such as hydrazine derivatives combined with nitrogen tetroxide, present severe toxicity, operational, and environmental hazards. High-test peroxide has emerged as a leading green oxidiser replacement due to its low...
Underground coal gasification (UCG) requires rigorous geological suitability evaluation to reduce project risks, and scientific site selection is critical for success. Taking the No. 15 coal seam in the Yushe–Wuxiang Block (Qinshui Basin) as th...
The Lantana genus, especially L. camara, has emerged as a potential yet underutilized lignocellulosic feedstock for various catalytic thermochemical conversion products and advanced carbon materials. This study reviews recent developments in the valo...
The standardized copper strip corrosion test is commonly used to assess the corrosive effects of automotive gasoline and diesel fuels on metallic materials. This test relies on visual evaluation of copper strip discoloration, which may introduce subj...
