2. 11. Investigation of Interactions between Liquid Iron Containing Oxygen and Aluminosilicate Refractories

   Author : Era Kapilasharmi; KTH; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The present work was initiated to investigate runnerrefractory corrosion by molten steel. The aim was to understandthe mechanism of inclusion formation during ingot casting. Thework is also of interest to other unit processes in steelmaking, where refractory corrosion and erosion are seriousproblems. READ MORE

4. 12. 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

5. 13. Degradation mechanisms in refractory lining materials of rotary kilns for iron ore pellet production

   Author : Jesper Stjernberg; Marc Huger; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materialteknik; Engineering Materials;

   Abstract : Iron is one of the most important resources in the lithosphere; 90% of all metal ores extracted are based on iron. Many steps are included in the extraction of iron from ore, with extraction processes varying among different producers. Iron ore pellets are a prepared burden material for ironmaking in the blast furnace or by direct reduction. READ MORE

6. 14. A Study of Biomass Combustion Problems and the Selective Catalytic Oxidation of Ammonia

   Author : Göran Olofsson; Kemiska institutionen; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Chemical technology and engineering; Kemiteknik och kemisk teknologi; Energy research; Reaction mechanism; Ammonia degradation; Pt CuO Al2O3 Catalysts; SCO; Selective Catalytic Oxidation; Catalytic hot gas cleaning; Bed agglomeration; NOx emissions; Fluidised bed; Biomass combustion; Biogas; Energiforskning;

   Abstract : Increasing awareness of the need of reducing CO2, NOx and SOx emissions from combustion systems has led to a strong interest in biomass as a fuel source. Using it in combination with fluidised bed combustion technology can lead to a lowering of NOx emissions to the atmosphere. READ MORE

7. 15. Thermal Barrier Coatings for Diesel Engines

   Author : Anders Thibblin; Ulf Olofsson; Stefan Jonsson; Senad Dizdar; Uta Klement; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; thermal barrier coatings; diesel engine; thermal cycling fatigue; heat flux; running-in; exhaust manifolds; yttria-stabilized zirconia; gadolinium zirconate; lanthanum zirconate; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

   Abstract : Reducing the heat losses in heavy-duty diesel engines is of importance for improving engine efficiency and reducing CO2 emissions. Depositing thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) onto engine components has been demonstrated to have great potential to reduce heat loss from the combustion chamber as well as from exhaust components.
