28. Energy from waste: sugarcane solid residues energy use in Brazil.

Author

Pippo, Walfrido Alonso, Luengo, Carlos A., Morales Alberteris, Lidice A., Garzone, Pietro, and Cornacchia, Giacinto

Abstract

The main questions on Sugarcane Agricultural Residues (SCAR) energy use at sugarcane agro-industry were analyzed. The uncertainties and opportunities of SCAR use as bagasse substitute and their direct use as feedstock for 2nd generation bioethanol production were compared. The assessment of conditions under which the SCAR energy use is feasible in Brazil was carried out. The optimal sugarcane factory size was estimated from SCAR energy use viewpoint. The environmental and socioeconomic issues related to implementation of SCAR energy use in commercial scale were treated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The aim of this study is the characterization of recycled carbon fibres, in view of their potential application in long-fibre reinforced thermoplastic composite. The fibres were obtained from epoxy matrix composite panels, applying a patented process that includes the pyrolisis of the matrix followed by an upgrading of the fibres. Then, recycled fibres were further subjected to thermal and acid treatments in order to modify their surface morphology and chemistry. Scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectrometry were used to characterize the morphological and compositional changes of the fibre surface. The fibres were characterized in terms of mechanical properties and adhesion to an epoxy matrix. The fibres treated by thermal processes at high temperatures (600°C) were shown to be too severely damaged, making them unsuitable for the production of fibre-reinforced composites. A thermal treatment at lower temperatures (450°C) involved a very limited damaging without any evident chemical modification of the fibre surface, which in turn involved a limited increase of the adhesion properties to an epoxy matrix. Chemical treatment by nitric acid caused a very limited damage of fibres, coupled with a significant modification of surface chemistry, which in turn involved a further increase of the fibre/matrix adhesion properties.

Abstract

This paper addresses the study of a pyro-gasification plant designed, built, and operated to recover inert metals from different types of solid waste. Experimental tests were carried out using pulper as the solid waste. However, while a reliable composition analysis of the produced syngas was carried out, a precise composition evaluation of the pulper used during the experimental activities was not performed and the related data were characterized by unacceptable uncertainty. Therefore, with the aim of reliably characterizing the plant operation, a thermochemical model of the gasification process was setup to simulate the equilibrium operation of the plant and a vector optimization methodology was used to calibrate the numerical model. Then, a decision-making problem was solved to identify the most suitable optimal solution between those belonging to the Pareto optimal front, thus obtaining reliable composition data for the adopted pulper waste. In particular, four different identification criteria were applied for the selection of small subset of solutions over the 3138 dominant solutions found. Among them, the solution (i.e., set of calibration parameters) that minimizes the experimental-numerical difference between the lower heating value of the produced syngas seemed to provide the most reliable approximation of the real plant operation. Finally, a possible plant configuration is proposed for the energetic valorization of the pulper waste and its overall conversion process efficiency is estimated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Production of energy or chemicals from biomass and several waste substrates appears a concrete strategy for replacing fossil fuels and reducing carbon dioxide emissions in the atmosphere. In particular, methanol from biomass or bio-waste is considered a reliable energy vector and key intermediate for industrial chemistry. Currently, methanol is industrially produced via syngas conversion using natural gas as the main feedstock. Bio-methane produced via anaerobic digestion (AD) of Organic Fraction Municipal Solid Wastes (OFMSW) may be used as an alternative to natural gas for production of syngas with optimal composition via commercialized reforming processes. In this work, a techno-environmental assessment for methanol production from biogas is presented and discussed. In particular, three case studies were assessed to minimize the environmental impact of bio-methanol production.
