Heavy Oils including waste petroleum oil can be catalytic cracked using a modified pyrolysis process and additional catalyst to promote the reaction. The result is lighter more valuable liquid products as well as high energy…

Coal is still used for a large percentage of heating and electricity generation in both Canada and the US mainly because of its abundance and high energy value. The problems associated with this is the…

The gasification of biomass and energy crops to generate electricity and heat is being researched to develop cost effective solutions for disposal of wastes while providing localized power. The producer gases from the unit after…

Low density biomass can be converted into a high density Bio Oil using thermal decomposition; this process yeilds non-condensable gases, Bio Oil and Char. The non-condensable gases are recycled to provide heat for the system…
