  1. 1. High-temperature corrosion properties of chromia- and alumina-forming alloys

    Author : Tommy Sand; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; High-temperature corrosion; Alumina scale; Chromia scale; Cr-evaporation; Nitridation; Oxidation;

    Abstract : Electricity production, transportation, and manufacturing industry are some of the largest sources of greenhouse gas emissions. In many cases, these processes are carried out at high temperature and energy efficiency is limited by material degradation, so-called ‘high-temperature corrosion’. READ MORE

  2. 2. Silicon Carbide Reinforced Alumina and Mullite Ceramics

    Author : Stefan Gustafsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ceramic Nanocomposites; Creep; SEM; SiC; Grain Boundaries; Microanalysis; Mullite; Pressureless Sintering; TEM; Alumina;

    Abstract : The aim of this work was to develop homogeneous ceramic nanocomposite materials with good thermal and structural stability as well as good mechanical properties. The development of microstructure was related to the material properties. READ MORE

  3. 3. Aspects of Ash Transformations in Pressurised Entrained-Flow Gasification of Woody Biomass : Pilot-scale studies

    Author : Charlie Ma; Marcus Öhman; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; woody biomass; gasification; ash transformation; slag behaviour; refractory corrosion; Energiteknik; Energy Engineering;

    Abstract : Pressurised entrained-flow gasification (PEFG) of woody biomass has the potential to produce high purity syngas for the production of vital chemicals, e.g., biofuels. However, ash-related issues such as reactor blockages and refractory corrosion need to be addressed before this potential can be realised from a technical perspective. READ MORE

  4. 4. High Temperature Corrosion Behaviour of Ni-base Alloys and FeCrAl Alloys – The Influence of Water Vapour

    Author : Tommy Sand; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cr-evaporation; FeCrAl alloy; Oxidation; Chromia scale; Alumina scale; High-temperature corrosion; Ni-base alloy;

    Abstract : Electricity production, transportation, and manufacturing industry are some of the largest sources of greenhouse gas emissions. In many cases, these processes are carried out at high temperature and energy efficiency is limited by material degradation, so-called ‘high-temperature corrosion’. READ MORE

  5. 5. Corrosion of High-Temperature Alloys in Molten Salts

    Author : Esraa Hamdy Mohamedin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Thermal energy storage; Pre-oxidation; Carburisation; Molten salts; Phase transition; High-temperature corrosion; Alumina-forming alloys; Alkali transition metalates; Alkali aluminate; Chromia-forming alloys; Alumina; Concentrated solar power;

    Abstract : Concentrated solar power (CSP) is an interesting technology that involves storing solar energy in the form of heat and subsequently converting it into electricity. The third-generation (Gen3) CSP plants aim to operate at temperatures >700°C, necessitating the deployment of new heat storage materials that can withstand such high operating temperatures. READ MORE
