An experimental investigation of oxy-coal combustion in a 15 kWth pressurized fluidized bed combustor (2018)
Journal Article

Pressurized oxy-coal combustion is considered as a promising carbon capture technology due to its potential of high efficiency and low cost in CO2 capture. However, experimental investigations of oxy-coal combustion under pressurized conditions are f...

An investigation of lime addition to fuel as a countermeasure to bed agglomeration for the combustion of non-woody biomass fuels in a 20kWth bubbling fluidised bed combustor (2018)
Journal Article

The unique fuel flexibility of fluidised bed system facilitates the combustion of low quality solid fuels such as agricultural residues, but may suffer from serious bed agglomeration problems especially when operating at the high end of the typical f...

Developing hierarchically ultra-micro/mesoporous biocarbons for highly selective carbon dioxide adsorption (2018)
Journal Article

Activated carbons represent one of the important categories of the adsorbent materials for CO2 capture currently under development. However, the low adsorption capacity and selectivity at low CO2 partial pressure or relatively high flue gas temperatu...

Synthesis and functionalisation of spherical meso-, hybrid meso/macro- and macro-porous cellular silica foam materials with regulated pore sizes for CO2 capture (2018)
Journal Article

A variety of meso, meso/macro and macro-structured siliceous cellular foam (SCFs) materials have been tailor-designed and fabricated from using a modified microemulsion templating methodology with trimethyl benzene (TMB) as the pore expander and Plu...

Experimental investigation on the coal combustion in a pressurized fluidized bed (2018)
Journal Article

Pressurized oxy-coal combustion is considered as one of the most promising carbon capture technologies in terms of high carbon capture efficiency and low cost. However, practical operational experience with pressurized coal combustion in a fluidized... Read More about Experimental investigation on the coal combustion in a pressurized fluidized bed.

Integrated semi-transparent cadmium telluride photovoltaic glazing into windows: energy and daylight performance for different architecture designs (2018)
Journal Article

When integrating photovoltaics into building windows, the photovoltaic glazing modules inhibit the function that glass performs, with the additional function of energy production. Semi-transparent Photovoltaic (STPV) glazing will absorb part of the s...

Removal of toluene as a biomass tar surrogate in a catalytic nonthermal plasma process (2018)
Journal Article

In this study, a packed-bed dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) reactor was developed to investigate the removal of biomass tar in a fuel gas atmosphere. Toluene was used as the tar surrogate, and the catalyst used was a Nickel-based catalyst (Ni/γ-Al...

A review of the applications of phase change materials in cooling, heating and power generation in different temperature ranges (2018)
Journal Article

Latent heat thermal energy storage is an attractive technique as it can provide higher energy storage density than conventional heat energy storage systems and has the capability to store heat of fusion at a constant (or a near constant) temperature...
