Coal gasification that converts coal into syngas is a promising technology for efficient and clean utilization of coal. Current simulations of coal gasification are mostly based on equilibrium reactions, which cannot reflect the residence time and carbon conversion rate. In this paper, the reliable chemical kinetics simulation of the coal gasification is carried out considering the solid residence time and the effects of the main parameters on the gasification performance are analyzed. The results show that the higher the O/coal ratio, the higher the carbon conversion rate until it reaches 100 %. However, an excessively high O/coal ratio will reduce the cold gas efficiency. Therefore, the ideal cold gas efficiency is further proposed, revealing the energy saving potential of the system by reusing the ungasified coal. Based on this, the energy conversion characteristics of the combined cycle system were analyzed, showing that the effective conversion of coal to synthetic gas is the key to improving efficiency.

In-situ stress plays a pivotal role in influencing the desorption, adsorption, and transportation of coalbed methane. The reservoir gas content represents a pivotal physical parameter, encapsulating both the coalbed methane enrichment capacity and the underlying enrichment law of the reservoir. This investigation collates, computes, and consolidates data concerning pore pressure, breakdown pressure, closure pressure, triaxial principal stress, gas content, lateral pressure coefficient, and other pertinent variables from coal reservoirs within several coal-bearing synclines in the Liupanshui coalfield, China.

With more than 10 million dry tons annually produced in the EU and a carbon content of approximately 30% db, sewage sludge (SS) can be a strategic source of biogenic carbon. However, the high moisture content and large amount of ash are strong barriers to sustainable valorisation. This study aims to assess the potential of hydrothermal carbonisation (HTC) as a sustainable alternative to sludge drying.

Carbon black from methane pyrolysis for hydrogen is an alternative resource and can be improved for conductive material supplication. Our current work uses an ultrafast Joule heating technique to modify the methane-pyrolyzed carbon black and prepare nanoparticles of electrode material for supercapacitor application, coupled with density functional theory, structural, and electrochemical analyses. Evolution rules of the carbon and pore structures of the modified sample with an increase in temperature reveal good structure improvements.
