• Exploration of supercritical water gasification of biomass using batch reactor 

    Venkitasamy, Chandrasekar (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
    [ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] The focus of this study is on gasification of a biomass in supercritical water. Vapor mass yield in a batch reactor after 20 minutes in a 700[degrees]C ...
  • Investigation of supercritical water processing of biomass : study of high pressure separation 

    Espanani, Reza (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)
    Global warming is caused by greenhouse gases such as CO2, CH4, NOx, and SOx. CO2 makes up about 80% (by mass) of greenhouse gas emitted by human activities. Therefore, CO2 emission plays a significant role in global warming. ...
  • Supercritical water gasification of waste residues 

    Wickramathilaka, Malithi (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
    [ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] A batch reactor was built in the University of Missouri Carbon Recycling Center to explore the thermo-chemical conversion of motor oil as a model ...
  • The use of supercritical fluids to process biomass for fuel 

    Wilkinson, Nikolas (University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
    [ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Soybean flakes were extracted using supercritical carbon dioxide at 48.3 MPa and 80 °C, which is a higher temperature than previously reported. Several ...
