Thermo-catalytic pyrolysis of sewage sludge and techno-economic analysis: The effect of synthetic zeolites and natural sourced catalysts

Bioresource Technology, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 400, P. 130676 - 130676

Published: April 7, 2024

This work focuses to the value added utilization of animal sewage sludge into gases, bio-oil and char using synthetic zeolite (ZSM-5 Y-zeolite) natural sourced (diatomite, kaolin, perlite) materials as catalysts. Pyrolysis was performed in a one-stage bench-scale reactor at temperatures 400 600 °C. The catalyst mixed with raw material before pyrolysis. Catalysts had significant effect on yield products, because amount volatile products higher their presence, than without them. In case due structural transformation occurring between 500–600 °C, increase activity observed terms pyrolysis reactions resulting volatiles. hydrogen content gas increased significantly temperature °C thermo-catalysts presence catalysts, more favourable properties.

Strategic Resource Planning for Sustainable Biogas Integration in Hybrid Renewable Energy Systems

Applied Sciences, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 15(2), P. 642 - 642

Published: Jan. 10, 2025

In response to the growing demand for sustainable energy and environmental impacts of fossil fuels, renewable sources like biomass have become crucial, especially in regions rich agricultural animal waste. This study focuses on a real-life project Aras de los Olmos, Spain, where solar, wind, biogas from serve as primary sources, supplemented by hydro-based storage system stabilize supply. Central research is optimizing inflow reactor—the controllable variable—to effectively manage supply chain, maximize output, minimize logistical costs. The addresses practical challenges utilizing real data demand, truck capacities, costs employing robust optimization tools Gurobi. It demonstrates how optimized flow can secure needs during high or when other renewables are unavailable. Integrating technical economic aspects, it offers comprehensive model economically viable production rural communities. provides foundational framework future studies.
