From July 19, 2019 to July 25, 2019
Biogas, derived from anaerobic digestion of organic matter, is a source of renewable energy with high energy and environmental potential. It is a complex mixture that contains different types of trace compounds, in varying amounts depending on the substrates, which can damage the storage and upgrading units (corrosion phenomena, toxic emissions).
The thesis subject deals with the study of the phenomena of selective adsorption of the constituents of a synthetic biogas on different types of adsorbents in order to separate trace compounds and to purify the biogas for the storage. The structural modification of the adsorbents used (modified activated carbons), the sizing, the design and the implementation of an experimental pilot for the study of these adsorption phenomena will be the main steps of the proposed methodology. The model biogas studied will be a reconstituted mixture whose composition and the conditions of pressure and temperature will be close to real conditions. The results of this PhD work will allow selecting profiled adsorbents for the treatment of biogas in order to optimize their storage conditions.Offer for a Thesis Allowance in Earth SciencesSubject: Paleopiezometry in carbonates: insights from stylolites.
