Abstract
The objective of this thesis is to evaluate and implement experimental tests for the removal of acidic compounds from a process stream, within the framework of a research project developed in collaboration with HYSYTECH S.r.l. The core focus of this study is the application and optimization of Micro-Bio-CHP technology, which is part of an initiative funded by the EU Horizon 2020 program. The primary issue addressed by this thesis revolves around the decarbonization of the residential energy sector, particularly the excessive reliance on fossil fuels for domestic heating and electricity production. In the current context, micro-CHP technologies based on conventional combustion or Stirling engines fail to meet household energy demands due to both low electrical efficiency and significant environmental impact.
The innovative aspect of Micro-Bio-CHP lies in integrating a gasifier with a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC), enabling the simultaneous production of heat and electricity from renewable sources, specifically biomass.
