Thermal chemical conversion of plastics waste for production of carbon nanotubes (2018)
Thesis
Liu, X. (2018). Thermal chemical conversion of plastics waste for production of carbon nanotubes. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4223301

With continuous growth for more than 50 years, global plastics production increased to 336 million tonnes in 2016, and over 27 million tonnes of post-consumer plastic wastes were produced. Waste management is necessary to minimise the plastic waste i... Read More about Thermal chemical conversion of plastics waste for production of carbon nanotubes.

CO2 capture using mesocellular siliceous foam (MCF)-supported CaO (2018)
Journal Article
Gao, F., Huang, J., Sun, H., Hu, J., Wang, M., Mi, J., & Wu, C. (2019). CO2 capture using mesocellular siliceous foam (MCF)-supported CaO. Journal of the Energy Institute, 92(5), 1591-1598. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.joei.2018.07.015

CaO is a promising material as an alternative CO2 capture material which can be used at high temperature. However, CaO sinters to form large particles under long-term high temperature conditions, resulting in a rapid decrease of its surface area and...

Techno-economic analysis of hybrid adiabatic compressed-air and biomass gasification energy storage systems for power generation through modelling and simulation (2018)
Thesis
Diyoke, C. (2018). Techno-economic analysis of hybrid adiabatic compressed-air and biomass gasification energy storage systems for power generation through modelling and simulation. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4500256

Energy storage has gained an increasing attention as a technology to smoothen out the variations associated with renewable energy power sources and adapt them into a dispatchable product to meet variable demand loads. An energy storage system can be...

Simultaneous removal of NO and Hg⁰ using Fe and Co co-doped Mn-Ce/TiO₂ catalysts (2018)
Journal Article
Shen, B., Zhu, S., Zhang, X., Chi, G., Patel, D., Si, M., & Wu, C. (2018). Simultaneous removal of NO and Hg⁰ using Fe and Co co-doped Mn-Ce/TiO₂ catalysts. Fuel, 224, 241-249. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.fuel.2018.03.080

Fe and Co co-doped Mn-Ce/TiO2 (MCT) catalysts were investigated for the simultaneous removal of nitric oxide (NO) and elemental mercury (Hg0) at reaction temperature lower than 200 °C. The catalysts were characterized by Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET),... Read More about Simultaneous removal of NO and Hg⁰ using Fe and Co co-doped Mn-Ce/TiO₂ catalysts.
