Thesis title
Impact of biogas siloxane impurities in end-use appliances
Research overview
Biomethane holds significant promise as a renewable alternative to natural gas, yet its widespread adoption hinges on understanding and managing the impurities it carries. My research investigates the impact of siloxane - a key impurity in biomethane - on end-use appliances and gas network infrastructure, combining experimental methods with mathematical modelling to establish safe and practical concentration limits. Ultimately, this work supports the cost-effective and safe injection of biomethane into existing gas networks, contributing to Australia's transition to a low-carbon energy future.
