Methane Number
Did you know that the methane number of a gas provides an indication of the knock tendency of a fuel? It is a product of the different constituent gases within the natural gas, particularly the proportions of methane, ethane, propane and butane. Understanding the knock resistance is important when specificing an engine for a gas-powered combined heat and power plant. Methane, which has a high ...

Converting waste into valuable resources with the Gasplasma process
Abstract This paper reports on a novel process development to convert waste into renewable energy using gasification. Advanced Plasma Power (APP) has developed an advanced thermal conversion technology, (Gasplasma ), capable of treating a wide range of organic and inorganic wastes. In the two-stage thermal process, the fluidised bed gasifier (FBG) converts the waste to a crude syngas containing ...
