  1. 1. The Survey of Ash Agglomeration Phenomena in a Commercial Circulating Fluidised Bed (CFB)

    Author : Ann Charlotte Tranvik; Mehri Sanati; Britt-Marie Steenari; Växjö universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CFB; combustion; biomass; agglomeration; ash; silicate; potassium; bed material; layer; deposition; Thermal energy engineering; Termisk energiteknik;

    Abstract : Renewable energy sources will act an important roll in the development of sustainability in the future in order to protect environment and ecological cycle.Amongst the Kyoto protocol conclusions there is an agreements for the EU a reduction of 8 % of greenhouse gas emissions (corresponding of around 6 million tonnes of CO2 equivalents ) between 2008-2012 (compared to 1990 level).

  2. 2. Deposit Induced Corrosion in Biofuel Combustion

    Author : Petter Andersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ferritic steel; high temperature corrosion; superheater; waste combustion; CFB; biofuel boiler; waterwall; alkali chloride; deposit induced corrosion; chromate; nickel-based alloy; austenitic steel; martensitic steel; waste boiler;

    Abstract : Deposit induced corrosion is one of the main mechanisms for attack on heat exchangers in biofuel boilers. This severe corrosion decreases the obtainable steam temperature in boilers, thereby the efficiency in production of electricity is reduced. Deposit formation from the gas on superheater tubes are is generally referred to as fouling. READ MORE

  3. 3. Combustion, Fluid Dynamics and Heat Transfer in Oxy-fuel and Air-Fired CFB boilers

    Author : Sadegh Seddighi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Carbon Capture and Storage; Combustion; Circulating Fluidized Bed; Oxy-Fuel; Multi-Phase Reacting Flow; Boiler Design; Emission; Fluid Dynamics; Heat Transfer;

    Abstract : The studies described in this thesis develop and encode modeling tools for the design and scale-up of oxy-fuel circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boilers across a wide range of operational conditions. The modeling comprises fluid dynamics, combustion, and heat transfer and uses expressions that are proposed in this work or derived from the literature, together with experimental data obtained under both oxy-fuel-fired and air-fired conditions.

  4. 4. Particles from biomass combustion -Characteristics and influence of additives

    Author : Linda S Bäfver; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; combustion; particle emission; wood; biomass; cereals; wood pellets;

    Abstract : AbstractHigh particle concentration in the air is a health risk, and particles from domestic biomass combustion are a significant particle source. In larger boilers, particles are an important element in the build-up of deposits on heat transfer surfaces, causing increased operation and maintenance costs. READ MORE

  5. 5. Design and Operation of a Chemical-Looping Reformer for Catalytic Upgrading of Biomass-Derived Gas

    Author : Fredrik Lind; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biomass gasification; Moisture measurements; Biomass combustion; Oxygen carriers; Ilmenite; Catalytic gas cleaning; CFB; Tar cleaning;

    Abstract : AbstractThe removal of tar from the raw gas produced during biomass gasification is necessary before the gas can be used as a feedstock for synthetic fuels. The currently commercially available technologies for gas cleaning, i.e. READ MORE
