Biomass Combustion
Biomass Combustion is an important renewable form of energy for power generation. Combined heat and power, CHP, is an efficient way of utilising this energy most effectively in units of 30 to 60 MW. Read more
Advanced oxy-coal combustion modelling and optimisation
Oxy-coal combustion with recycled flue gas is an emerging technology for efficient carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) that can substantially reduce carbon emission from coal-fired power plants. Read more
Comparison of entrained metal aerosol emissions from conventional fuel combustion
Metal/inorganic impurities in fuels can have detrimental impacts on combustion and downstream systems. These vary widely between fuels and there are distinct differences between conventional coal and biomasses used for UK power generation. Read more
Design and development of water desalination plants for rural communities, driven by a hybrid solar-bioenergy system
Freshwater supplies are becoming increasingly stressed as demand increases. Desalination technologies are able to produce drinking water from abundant resources such as seawater. Read more
Comparison of entrained metal aerosol emissions from the combustion of different biomass fuels
Impurities in fuels have detrimental impacts on combustion/downstream systems, including CCS and heat recovery. Read more
Low cost, energy efficient biomethane production from landfill gas or biogas
Biomethane can be produced from biogas or landfill gas in a fairly simple water scrubbing system. This process has been used on large scale biogas plants but the optimal operation has not been fully investigated. Read more
Development and validation of control strategies for flexible and demand-driven anaerobic digestion
Bioenergy and anaerobic digestion can have a major role as a source of dispatchable energy in future energy systems with high penetration of intermittent renewables. Read more
Design and development of water desalination plants for rural communities, driven by a hybrid solar-biogas energy system
Freshwater supplies are becoming increasingly stressed as demand increases. Desalination technologies are able to produce drinking water from abundant resources such as seawater. Read more
Experimental and numerical study of manufacturing induced defects in structural integrity of a Metal Matrix Composite
Metal-matrix composites are metals or alloys that includes particles, whiskers, fibres etc. made of a different material. These materials can be tailored to be lightweight and with various other properties. Read more
