  1. 16. Hydrodynamics, Erosion and Heat Transfer in Pressurized Fluidized Beds

    Author : Jan Wiman; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; hydrodynamics erosion; heat transfer; tubes; fluidized bed; gas flow; pressurized fluidized bed; bubble;

    Abstract : Measurements of hydrodynamics, local tube erosion and local instantaneous bed-to-tube heat transfer were carried out in a cold, pressurized, fluidized bed with different horizontal tube banks. The influence of pressure, fluidization velocity, particle size and tube-bank geometry was studied. READ MORE

  2. 17. Choice of bed material: a critical parameter in the optimization of dual fluidized bed systems

    Author : Jelena Maric; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; GoBiGas; biomass ash; ilmenite; feldspar; biofuel; alkali salts; Dual Fluidized Bed; bed material; Chemical Looping Reforming;

    Abstract : Dual Fluidized Bed (DFB) gasification is a promising alternative method for the production of biofuels. In the DFB gasification process, the bed material, which is a crucial component of the process, has two possible roles: 1) to provide the heat needed for the gasification reaction; and 2) if it has catalytic properties, to improve the quality of the produced gas.

  3. 18. Fluidized bed combustion and gasification for phosphorus recovery by co-conversion of sewage sludge with biomass

    Author : Thomas Karl Hannl; Marcus Öhman; Matthias Kuba; Nils Skoglund; Mikko Hupa; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Combustion; gasification; sewage sludge; agricultural residues; fluidized bed; ash chemistry; bed material; phosphorus; fuel design; Energy Engineering; Energiteknik;

    Abstract : In recent years, the thermal conversion of sewage sludge has proven its applicability for managing this inevitably generated waste. The viability arises from the concomitant features of recovering energy or valuable compounds, the breakdown of potentially harmful organic compounds, the separation or immobilization of heavy metals, and the formation of volume-reduced, sanitized residues.

  4. 19. Packed-Fluidized Bed Reactors – Batch Experiments and Fundamental Modeling with Random Metal Packings

    Author : Nasrin Nemati; 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; Bubbling fluidized bed; Heat transfer; Confined fluidization; Chemical-looping combustion; Mass transfer; Random packing; Packed-fluidized bed;

    Abstract : The aim of this work is to investigate the effect of random packings on heat and mass transfer phenomena, when applied in bubbling fluidized beds. For this purpose, first, the heat transfer coefficient to a horizontal tube submerged in a fluidized bed containing various types of random packings was investigated. READ MORE

  5. 20. Solids Flow in Large-Scale Circulating Fluidized Bed Furnaces

    Author : Tove Djerf; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Solids flow; Transport zone; Fluid-dynamical down-scaling; Splash zone; Circulating fluidized bed boilers; Dense bed;

    Abstract : The flow pattern of solids established in large-scale circulating fluidized bed (CFB) furnaces is of great importance for the performance of commercial CFB boilers, as it governs the heat transfer and mixing of the fuel and any other reactive solids. The solids flow pattern in the riser is crucial for the design and scaling up of large-scale CFB technologies for the thermochemical conversion of solids. READ MORE
