Low temperature gasification of olive kernels in a 5-kW fluidized bed reactor for H2-rich producer gas (2008)
Journal Article
Skoulou, V., Koufodimos, G., Samaras, Z., & Zabaniotou, A. (2008). Low temperature gasification of olive kernels in a 5-kW fluidized bed reactor for H2-rich producer gas. International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 33(22), 6515-6524. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijhydene.2008.07.074

Air gasification of olive kernels in a 5 kW bench scale, bubbling fluidized bed gasifier, aimed at H 2 enrichment of the producer gas, was the target of this study. The effects of reactor temperature (T = 750-850 °C) and equivalence ratio (ER = 0.2-0...

Syngas production from olive tree cuttings and olive kernels in a downdraft fixed-bed gasifier (2008)
Journal Article
Skoulou, V., Zabaniotou, A., Stavropoulos, G., & Sakelaropoulos, G. (2008). Syngas production from olive tree cuttings and olive kernels in a downdraft fixed-bed gasifier. International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 33(4), 1185-1194. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijhydene.2007.12.051

This study presents a laboratory fixed-bed gasification of olive kernels and olive tree cuttings. Gasification took place with air, in a temperature range of 750-950 °C, for various air equivalence ratios (0.14-0.42) and under atmospheric pressure. I...
