- Additional information
- The utilisation of biomass-derived biohythane (CH4/CO2/H2) in solid oxide fuel cells was investigated for the first time and shown to have 77% better electrical efficiency than the use of biogas (CH4/CO2). The work was produced collaboratively through FLEXIS (ERDF) and is highly relevant to emissions arising from wastewater treatment and steelmaking processes. The work was presented at the International SOFC-XVI Symposium in Japan 2019 and formed part of Panagi’s thesis. The work led to increased engagement with Tata Steel on the Reduction of Industrial Carbon Emissions (ERDF) project and created three KESSII (ESF) projects sponsored by Tata Steel.
