Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The growing concerns over the availability and environmental consequences associated with fossil fuel have led to a shift in the use of biomass. More and more countries and researchers are paying attention to biomass advanced and clean utilization technology. This Special Issue will focus on recent advances of biomass combustion and gasification and related thermal conversion technology.

The main topics as follows:

  • Biomass combustion technology
  • Biomass gasification technology
  • Biomass advanced thermal conversion technology
  • Biomass utilization and negative CO2 emission

We invite you to submit a paper for this Special Issue. The journal encourages all authors to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the paper. Please pay attention that the manuscript submitted to https://0-www-mdpi-com.brum.beds.ac.uk/journal/energies should select the Special Issue: Recent Advances of Biomass Combustion, and Gasification.

This study evaluated the CO2 sequestration potential with combustion ashes in the aqueous phase. The aim was to provide a cost-effective carbon sequestration method for combustion unit operators (flue gas cleaning) or biogas producers (biogas upgrading). Therefore, two separate test series were executed to identify the carbonation efficiency (CE) of bottom wood ash (1) at different mixing ratios with water in batch experiments and (2) under dynamic flow conditions. It was furthermore evaluated whether subsequent use of the carbonated wood ash for soil amendment could be possible and whether the process water could be passed into the sewage. The batch test series showed that different mixing ratios of wood ash and water had an influence on the CE. The flow series showed that the mean CE varied between approximately 14% and 17%. Thus, the ash proved to be suitable for carbonation processes. The process water was dischargeable, and the carbonated wood ash has potential for chalking, as no legal thresholds were exceeded. Therefore, wood ash carbonation could be used as a low-tech CO2 sequestration technology. Compared to existing energy consuming and cost intensive carbon capture and storage technologies, sequestration with ash could be beneficial, as it represents a low-tech approach. Full article
