  1. 1. Microcalorimetry and Infrared Spectroscopy : Thermal processes related to solid waste, ageing rubber, phase change materials, and biomass gasification

    Author : Mohit Pushp; Mikael S. Hedenqvist; Anders Lönnermark; Lars Wadsö; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : Microcalorimetry (MC) is a unique technique for an online measurement of heat production. It can be applied to solids, liquids, or gases. MC can be used to measure the heat involved in either exothermic or endothermic processes. READ MORE

  2. 2. Studies of ash transformation processes in thermochemical co-conversion of phosphorus-rich manure and sludge with biomass residues

    Author : Gustav Häggström; Marcus Öhman; Anders Lagerkvist; Nils Skoglund; Flemming Jappe Frandsen; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sewage sludge; agricultural residues; forest residues; ash transformation; potassium; phosphorus; combustion; gasification; phosphorus recovery; Energy Engineering; Energiteknik;

    Abstract : Efficient use of resources and sustainable recovery of various materials are important to minimize the anthropogenic impact on the climate and environment. One such resource is the phosphorus (P) present in manure and sewage sludge. READ MORE

  3. 3. Effect of fuel composition and combustion conditions on phosphorus behavior during combustion of biomass

    Author : Joel Falk; Marcus Öhman; Anita Petterson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energiteknik; Energy Engineering;

    Abstract : Due to concerns for climate change and future supply of phosphorus fertilizer within agriculture, there has been an increased interest in the combustion of phosphorus containing waste residues and opportunity biomass fuels. Previous research has shown that during combustion, phosphorus has large impact on ash transformation reactions and may decrease or increase ash-related problems such as slag formation and bed agglomeration.

  4. 4. Layer formation on quartz particles during fluidized bed combustion/gasification of woody biomass

    Author : Hanbing He; Christoffer Boman; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy Engineering; Energiteknik;

    Abstract : The formation of sticky layers on bed particles has been considered as a prerequisite for bed agglomeration in fluidized bed combustion and gasification of woody fuels. In addition, the layer formed makes the bed particle less resistant against fragmentation. The fragments from quartz particles can result in deposition. READ MORE

  5. 5. The effect of surface morphology on bed particle layer characteristics in fluidized bed combustion and gasification of woody biomass

    Author : Ali Valizadeh; Marcus Öhman; Mikael Thyrel; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy Engineering; Energiteknik;

    Abstract : A critical process phenomenon in fluidized bed combustion and gasification is the bed particle layer formation which might be problematic in cases where it instigates bed agglomeration and bed material deposition or could improve the process performance in cases where it has a positive effect on tar reduction in biomass gasification. The interactions between ash forming matter for a wide variety of wood-derived fuels with different types of bed materials in fluidized bed combustion and gasification have been profusely studied, and the underlying mechanism of bed particle layer formation has been suggested.
