Course Objectives: | Bioenergy is relied upon worldwide as a modern solution for local energy supply and waste management. Within different sectors, from architecture and engineering to agriculture, a variety of professionals are growing more interested in the application of new technology for generating heat and power from biomass. Large amounts of additional know-how are asked for, in particular about the state of the art of the technology and the actual market situation, and this requires services in planning and design, economics and consultancy. This lecture will complement the services described above, and should support the decision-making process in offering up-to-date information on the latest technical developments based on best-practice experience. Finally, the methods for bioenergy technologies will be investigated in detail and an application will be realized by using multiple decision making methods (MCDM). |
The students who have succeeded in this course; 1) Learn types of biomass 2) Explain how we obtain energy from biomass. 3) Describe the technologies currently used to produce energy from biomass, and the fundamental principles governing the design of these processes 4) Compare biomass to energy technologies via Multi-criteria Decision Making Methods (MCDM) 5) Realize production of biofuels 6) Production of biohydrogen, and future of hydrogen based systems |
Photosynthesis, planting, harvesting, types of biomass, anaerobic digestion, liquid fuels, fermentation, gasification, pyrolysis, biodiesel other bioconversions, biomass combustion for heat and power, hydrogen from biomass. |
