Open Access Theses & Dissertations
High-pressure gasification is gaining attention as an emerging solution for sustainable energy production due to its potential to achieve higher efficiencies, improved syngas quality and smaller equipment footprints. High operating pressures and temperatures can increase the synergistic reactivity of biomass and organic materials, consequently enabling higher in situ tar reformation and ultimately reducing the number of gas treatment requirements. Additionally, higher operating pressures result in a more concentrated CO2 stream and reduce the amount of post-gasification compression requirements in the carbon capture and storage (CCS) unit, improving overall system efficiency. Plus, pressurized CO2 streams from the gasifier also provides routes …

University Faculty Publications and Creative Works
The net energy implications of the energy transition have so far been analysed at best at the final energy stage. Here we argue that expanding the analysis to the useful stage is crucial. We estimate fossil fuelsʼ useful-stage energy returns on investment (EROIs) over the period 1971–2020, globally and nationally, and disaggregate EROIs by end use. We find that fossil fuelsʼ useful-stage EROIs (~3.5:1) are considerably lower than at the final stage (~8.5:1), due to low final-to-useful efficiencies. Further, we estimate the final-stage EROI for which electricity-yielding renewable energy would deliver the same net useful energy as fossil fuels (EROI …

We have now identified two thermodynamically distinct types (A and B) of energetic processes naturally occurring on Earth. Type-A energy processes, such as classical heat engines, apparently well follow the second law of thermodynamics; Type-B energy processes, such as the newly discovered thermotrophic function that isothermally utilizes environmental heat energy to perform useful work in driving ATP synthesis, follow the first law of thermodynamics (conservation of mass and energy) but do not have to be constrained by the second law, owing to their special asymmetric functions. Several Type-B energy processes such as asymmetric function-gated isothermal electricity production and epicatalysis have …
