Know About Popular Waste to Energy Conversion Routes

Salman Zafar — Thu, 24 Jul 2025 01:48:30 +0000

Waste-to-energy is the use of combustion and biological technologies to recover energy from urban wastes. There are three major waste to energy conversion routes – thermochemical, biochemical and physico-chemical. Thermochemical conversion, characterized by higher temperature and conversion rates, is best...

Biomethane Utilization Pathways

Jort Langerak — Tue, 15 Oct 2024 15:22:44 +0000

Biogas can be used in raw (without removal of CO2) or in upgraded form. The main function of upgrading biogas is the removal of CO2 (to increase the energy content) and H2S (to reduce risk of corrosion). After upgrading, biogas...
