2. 1. Analysis of the cold flow field in a rotary kiln

   Author : Sofia Larsson; Lisa Prahl Wittberg; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Strömningslära; Fluid Mechanics;

   Abstract : The pelletizing process where the crude ore from the mine is upgraded to pellets is a process which includes several stages involving complex fluid dynamics. In this thesis, focus is on the grate-kiln pelletizing process and especially on the rotary kiln, with the objective to get a deeper understanding of the aerodynamics and its influence on the combustion process.

4. 2. Modeling Aspects of Chemical-Looping Combustion for Solid Fuels

   Author : Pontus Markström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cold-flow model; Residence time; Chemical-looping combustion; Solid fuel; Scaling;

   Abstract : Chemical-looping combustion is a novel technology for combustion of fossil fuel. By using a circulating bed material to transfer oxygen to the fuel, a pure stream of carbon dioxide can be obtained from the flue gas, undiluted by nitrogen. READ MORE

5. 3. Design, modelling and operation of a 100 kW chemical-looping combustor for solid fuels

   Author : Pontus Markström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CO2 capture; Fluidised beds; Chemical-looping combustion; Modelling; Carbon capture and storage; Oxygen carriers;

   Abstract : With the increasing threat of global warming, technologies for efficient capture and storage of the greenhouse gas CO2 are sought after. Chemical-looping combustion is a novel CO2 capture technology that can be applied when burning gaseous, liquid or solid fuels. READ MORE

6. 4. Fluidized-Bed Reactor Systems for Chemical-Looping Combustion with Inherent Separation of CO2

   Author : Eva Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Chemical-Looping Combustion; Interconnected Fluidized Beds; Carbon Dioxide Capture;

   Abstract : In chemical-looping combustion (CLC) a gaseous fuel can be burnt with inherent separation of carbon dioxide. The system consists of two reactors, a fuel reactor and an air reactor and an oxygen-carrier in the form of metal oxide particles that transports oxygen from the air to the fuel. READ MORE

7. 5. Solids flows in circulating fluidized beds: explorations of phenomena with applications to boilers

   Author : Tove Djerf; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; solids flow; fluidization; scaling; circulating fluidized bed boiler; fluid dynamics;

   Abstract : The circulating fluidized bed (CFB), which is a technology that is commonly used in the heat and power sector, efficiently converts renewable and/or and low-grade solid fuels, such as biomass and biogenic waste fractions. CFB units serve also as a technological platform for carbon capture processes (combustion by oxy-firing or chemical looping), which are foreseen to play a key role in the transition of the energy system towards decreased atmospheric CO2 emissions.
