1. Furnace Wall Corrosion in a Wood-fired Boiler
Abstract : The use of renewable wood-based fuel has been increasing in the last few decades because it is said to be carbon neutral. However, wood-based fuel, and especially used wood (also known as recycled wood or waste wood), is more corrosive than virgin wood (forest fuel), because of higher amounts of chlorine and heavy metals.

2. High temperature corrosion in a biomass-fired power boiler : Reducing furnace wall corrosion in a waste wood-fired power plant with advanced steam data
Abstract : The use of waste (or recycled) wood as a fuel in heat and power stations is becoming more widespread in Sweden (and Europe), because it is CO2 neutral with a lower cost than forest fuel. However, it is a heterogeneous fuel with a high amount of chlorine, alkali and heavy metals which causes more corrosion than fossil fuels or forest fuel. READ MORE

3. Modelling and Experimental Investigations on Thermal Radiation in Combustion Environments
Abstract : Thermal radiation is an important physical phenomenon in combustion environments. For the understanding of existing- and the design of new combustion environments computational modelling is a useful tool as it can describe the different transport phenomena. READ MORE

4. Radiative Heat Transfer in Suspension-Fired Systems
Abstract : Radiation is the dominating heat transfer mechanism in most furnaces, and the radiative properties of combustion products represent important aspects regarding its suitability as a heat source. However, fuel and energy markets are undergoing rapid changes due to increasing concerns related to the security of supply and increased global warming. READ MORE

5. Experimental and numerical studies of thermal radiation in gas, coal and co-fired pilot test facilities
Abstract : Throughout the industrialized era, fossil fuels have been used extensively in combustion processes to generate heat and electricity. However, the combustion of such fuels creates emissions of greenhouse gases, mainly carbon dioxide, and other hazardous products. READ MORE
