Syngas produced by biomass and waste gasification processes must be adequately clean of tar compounds before being utilized in value‐added applications. Syngas cleaning by tar cracking at high temperatures is a promising technique that can utilize different kinds of catalysts. However, their use is limited by the deposition of coke layers, which in...
Activated carbons are recognised as inexpensive, easily available, and efficient catalysts for tar cracking reactions at high temperatures. Their use in hot syngas cleaning is limited by the rapid deactivation resulting from the coke deposition, and the consequent masking phenomenon over the activated carbon surface. This study contributes to a bet...
The study compares the environmental performances of a new-generation, large scale, combustion-based waste-to-energy unit, active since 2010, with those of different "virtual" units, defined in the light of the Best Available Techniques REFerence document (BREF) for Waste Incineration published by the European Community on December 2019. The averag...
