Evaluating the safety and regulatory aspects of the combined nuclear/chemical complex for Hydrogen production
(North-West University, 2008)Recently there has been an exceptional resurgence of interest in the nuclear power industry and the cogeneration of hydrogen from nuclear process heat and electricity, with climate change and energy security the main drivers ... -
Evaluation of the reduction of CO2 emissions from a coal–to–liquids utilities plant by incorporating PBMR energy
(North-West University, 2012)Due to the constantly growing environmental concerns about global warming, there is immense pressure on the coal-to-liquids (CTL) industry to lower carbon dioxide emissions. This study evaluates the cogeneration of ... -
An investigation into the feasibility of applying the watergas shift process to increase hydrogen production rate of the hybrid sulphur process
(North-West University, 2008)An investigation was undertaken to determine the feasibility of increasing the hydrogen production rate by coupling the water gas shift (WGS) process to the hybrid sulphur process (HyS). This investigation also involved ... -
Non-catalytic plasma-arc reforming process of methane with carbon dioxide for hydrogen production
(North-West University, 2009)The world revolves around energy; it is needed to power industry, move people and products around the world and provide safety and convertibility for everyone. Current technologies produce huge amounts of greenhouse gases. ... -
Technical evaluation of the copper chloride water splitting cycle
(North-West University, 2011)The global energy sector is facing a crisis caused by the increasing demand for energy. Non-renewable energy sources, such as fossil fuels produce greenhouse gases that are largely blamed for climate change. The Kyoto ... -
Techno-economic evaluation of the hybrid sulphur chemical water splitting (HyS) process
(North-West University, 2010)The constantly growing demand for energy and the consequent depletion of fossil fuels have led to a drive for energy that is environmentally friendly, efficient and sustainable. A viable source with the most potential ... -
Utilizing nuclear process heat to reduce the CO2 generated by an SMR process in a GTL environment
(North-West University, 2010)Gas to liquids (GTL) technology, although an attractive method for meeting liquid fuel requirements into the future, has an inherent concern regarding the environmental impact of dealing with the large amount of carbon ...
