Disclosed herein are methods of producing a gas at a variable rate, the methods comprising dynamically mixing dry particles comprising a precursor and dry particles comprising a proton-generating species to produce a gas and wherein the gas is produced at a rate that is varied by varying the amount of time the dry particles comprising the precursor and the dry particles comprising the proton-generating species are dynamically mixed, the rate at which the dry particles comprising the precursor and the dry particles comprising the proton-generating species are dynamically mixed, or a combination thereof.

A method for preparing a carbonaceous product includes providing oxygen, in particular from electrolysis, and providing a fuel. The method also includes combusting the fuel with the oxygen by an oxy-fuel combustion process in order to provide energy, purifying a flue gas produced by the oxy-fuel combustion process, and separating carbon dioxide from the flue gas produced by the oxy-fuel combustion process, wherein energy provided by the oxy-fuel combustion process includes, in particular exclusively, heat which is used as process heat for purifying and/or for synthesising or providing the carbonaceous product. A corresponding system is designed to carry out the described method.

Commercially beneficial carbon-containing fractions can be recovered from hydrothermal liquefaction reactions in various types of processors. Feedstock slurry from waste solids is placed into a pressurized processor where it is maintained at temperature and pressure for a predetermined period. On discharge from the processor the processed discharge is separated into liquid and solid fractions. Gaseous fractions including carbon dioxide can also be removed or off-taken from the processor. New molecular structures are created in this reaction, resulting in fractions including biogas, biofuels, biosolids and biocrude. Silica, phosphates, potash and low concentration nitrogen based fertilizer, along with carbonaceous material can also be recovered.
