• Microwave assisted low-temperature hydrothermal treatment of solid anaerobic digestate for optimising hydrochar and energy recovery 

  Deng, Chen; Kang, Xihui; Lin, Richen; Murphy, Jerry D. (Elsevier, 2020-04-08)

  With the growth of anaerobic digestion (AD) for biogas production, associated increasing digestate production may cause environmental problems if the increasing agricultural land required for digestate application is ...
• Effects of foam nickel supplementation on anaerobic digestion: Direct interspecies electron transfer 

  Guo, Xiaobo; Sun, Chihe; Lin, Richen; Xia, Ao; Huang, Yun; Zhu, Xianqing; Show, Pau-Loke; Murphy, Jerry D. (Elsevier, 2020-05-17)

  Stimulating direct interspecies electron transfer with conductive materials is a promising strategy to overcome the limitation of electron transfer efficiency in syntrophic methanogenesis of industrial wastewater. This ...
• Improving gaseous biofuel yield from seaweed through a cascading circular bioenergy system integrating anaerobic digestion and pyrolysis 

  Deng, Chen; Lin, Richen; Kang, Xihui; Wu, Benteng; O'Shea, Richard; Murphy, Jerry D. (Elsevier, 2020-05-11)

  Advanced biofuels include biomass sources free from land use such as seaweed. Seaweed biomethane may contribute significantly to a climate-neutral transport future; however, seaweed has limited biodegradability via anaerobic ...
• Power capture performance of hybrid wave farms combining different wave energy conversion technologies: The H-factor 

  Zheng, Siming; Zhang, Yongliang; Iglesias, Gregorio (Elsevier Ltd., 2020-05-24)

  In this paper we consider hybrid wave farms, in which different types of WEC are combined, through a case study involving oscillating water columns (OWCs) and point-absorbers (PAs). A new parameter, called “H-factor”, is ...
• A practical approach for increased electrification, lower emissions and lower energy costs in Africa 

  Olówósejéjé, Samuel; Leahy, Paul; Morrison, Alan P. (Elsevier Ltd., 2020-04-23)

  The limited access to affordable, reliable and sustainable energy in sub-Saharan Africa could inhibit the region's realisation of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals by 2030. The intermittency and unreliability ...
