Article Citation - WoS: 26Citation - Scopus: 25Biomass Driven Polygeneration Systems: a Review of Recent Progress and Future Prospects(Elsevier, 2023) Tabriz, Zahra Hajimohammadi; Khani, Leyla; Mohammadpourfard, Mousa; Gökçen Akkurt, GüldenBiomass is the most widely used renewable energy source which is highly appreciated due to its high availability and non-intermittent nature. Considering problems such as reduction of fossil fuels, global warming, and emission of greenhouse gases, lack of attention to the existing situation may cause irreversible damage to the future of the planet. In addition to using renewable energy sources, improving the efficiency of systems will also be helpful. Polygeneration systems play an important role in increasing efficiency and reducing pollution. So, the use of biomass in polygeneration systems seems to be a great approach for sustainable development. Recent studies on biomass-based polygeneration systems have focused on how to use biomass and integrate diverse subsystems to achieve the best performance from energy and exergy viewpoints. The present paper reviews biomass-based systems, and the parameters affecting the performance of these systems. The literature review shows that the high exergy destruction rate in the gasifiers is the most frequent problem among recent articles. In addition, despite the advantages of anaerobic digestion process, the number of studies conducted on the use of this method for biomass conversion is small. In the end, results, limitations, and future outlooks of these systems are discussed.Article Citation - WoS: 3Anaerobic Co-Digestion of Tannery Solid Waste: Optimum Leather Fleshing Waste Loading(2020) Bayrakdar, AlperIn this study, loading of optimum leather fleshings was investigated with four identical batch reactors with different fleshings and treatment sludge ratios (0:1, 0.25:1, 0.35:1, 0.50:1) to contribute to the state of art of the biogas production from tannery solid wastes. Results showed that lipids-containing leather fleshings boosted the methane production potential. However, H2S inhibition and volatile fatty acids accumulation were the main concern in the anaerobic digestion of these wastes. The modified Gompertz model was applied to the batch tests data to determine the kinetic constants of anaerobic digestion of tannery solid wastes. It was calculated with the model outputs that the ultimate methane production potential and maximum methane production rate in reactors having mixing ratio of 0.35:1 and 0.5:1 (dry basis) were highly similar. 0.35 was found to be an optimum leather fleshing and treatment sludge ratio with a 54% more methane production potential than that of control reactor in this study.
