In this study, the thermal analysis of co-combustion of biomass fuels and oil shale were investigated. The objective was to assess the effect of the biomass on combustion performance when blended with oil shale. Thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry were used to analyze the samples. The biomass samples studied were hazelnut shell, wheat bran, poplar, and miscanthus. Co-combustion of blends were performed at different biomass proportions (10, 20, 50 % by wt.).

THERMAL ANALYSIS OF CO-FIRING OF OIL SHALE AND BIOMASS FUELS Ozgur, Emre; Miller, Sharon Falcone; Miller, Bruce G.; Kök, Mustafa Verşan (2012-01-01) The effect of co-firing of biomass fuels with oil shale on combustion was investigated Thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry were the tools used to perform the investigation. Since the combustion of biomass is highly exothermic, biomass fuels can serve as an appropriate fuel feedstock. Biomass fuels producing much volatile matter and containing less cellulose are good candidates for co-firing with oil shale. The biomass samples used in the study were hazelnut shell, wheat bran, po...
CO2 hydrogenation to methanol and dimethyl ether at atmospheric pressure using Cu-Ho-Ga/gamma-Al2O3 and Cu-Ho-Ga/ZSM-5: Experimental study and thermodynamic analysis Tuygun, Cansu; İpek Torun, Bahar (2021-01-01) CO2 valorization through chemical reactions attracts significant attention due to the mitigation of greenhouse gas effects. This article covers the catalytic hydrogenation of CO2 to methanol and dimethyl ether using Cu-Ho-Ga containing ZSM-5 and gamma-Al2O3 at atmospheric pressure and at temperatures of 210 degrees C and 260 degrees C using a CO2:H-2 feed ratio of 1:3 and 1:9. In addition, the thermodynamic limitations of methanol and DME formation from CO2 was investigated at a temperature range of 100-400...
Thermal and geochemical investigation of Seyitomer oil shale Kök, Mustafa Verşan; Hufnagel, Heinz; Sonel, Nurettin (Elsevier BV, 2001-4) The results of an experimental study on the thermal and organic geochemical investigation of Seyitomer oil shale sample are presented. Thermogravimetry (TG/DTG) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) have been used to determine the thermal behaviour of the oil shale sample. On the other hand, organic carbon content, rock-eval pyrolysis, and gas and liquid chromatography experiments were conducted to determine geochemical properties of the oil shale sample.
Experimental investigation of an oil loss mechanism in internal combustion engines Sezer, Ahmet; Dursunkaya, Zafer; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2010) Oil loss mechanisms in internal combustion engines have been subject to many researches. By the help of technological developments effects of several problems due to oil losses were examined and tried to be reduced. Environmental pollution and performance loss are important issues that oil consumption in internal combustion engines contribute. In this study the effects of individual parameters on the oil accumulation in 2nd land crevice of internal combustion engines, volume between top compression rings, w...
Thermal analysis applications in fossil fuel science - Literature survey Kök, Mustafa Verşan (2002-01-01) In this study, instances where thermal analysis techniques ( differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetry, differential thermal analysis, etc.) have been applied for fossil fuel characterisation and kinetics are reviewed. The scientific results presented clearly showed that thermal analysis is a well-established technique used in fossil fuel research area. The literature survey showed that thermal methods were important not only theoretically but also from a practical point of view.
