MINLP optimization for heat integration of bio-hydrogen production from palm waste

With the current energy and environmental crisis, hydrogen economy has now gained a positive outlook. This alternative type of energy can be produced from a renewable source such as biomass. However, the thermochemical conversion of biomass into hydrogen via steam gasification can be energy intensiv...
