Fly ash classification efficiency of electrostatic precipitators in fluidized bed combustion of peat, wood, and forest residues

Combustion of some Thai agricultural and wood residues in a pilot swirling fluidized-bed combustor

This paper reports a comparative study of burning Thai rice husk, sunflower shells and fine rubberwood sawdust as well as co-firing of the sawdust and shredded eucalyptus bark in the swirling fluidizedbed combustor (SFBC). All experiments for firing individual fuels were performed for the combustor heat input of ∼300 kWth. However, in the co-firing tests, the fuel mixture was delivered at a fix...

Handling of impregnated waste wood and characterization of ash residues after combustion of the wood

In the next ten years the amounts of waste wood impregnated with Cu, Cr and As (CCA) is expected to increase dramatically world wide. CCA has been widely used for wood preservation since the early 1950s and because the fixation of CCA in the wood is good, the concentration of CCA is still high, when the wood is at the end of service. In some countries e.g. Denmark and Norway, the use of As for ...

Reuse the Bed Ash from Circulating Fluidized Bed Combustion on Mortar Mixture

This paper investigates mortars consisting of various circulating fluidized bed combustion (CFBC) bed ash contents. The CFBC bed ash used in this study was obtained from Taiwan’s petroleum industry. This study presents experimental results on the flowability, compressive strength, drying shrinkage, scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) and mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP) of mortar samples co...

Studies on Ash Behavior during Co-Combustion Of Paper Sludge in Fluidized Bed Boilers

Cfd Analysis of Circulating Fluidized Bed Combustion

In this paper computational analysis of circulating fluidized bed combustion using the fluent software is analysed. This work is concerned about gas–solid two-phase mixtures flowing upwards through the fast beds. The procedures studied are applicable to all types of fluidized-bed boilers. The type of information resulting from various ways of analyzing the pressure and temperature in fluidized ...
