Hydrogen production from groundnut shell via circulating fluidized bed technology

Cluster Dynamics in a Circulating Fluidized Bed

A common hydrodynamic feature in industrial scale circulating fluidized beds is the presence of clusters. The continuous formation and destruction of clusters strongly influences particle hold-up, pressure drop, heat transfer at the wall, and mixing. In this paper fiber optic data is analyzed using discrete wavelet analysis to characterize the dynamic behavior of clusters. Five radial positions...

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 ...

Enhancement of Hydrogen and Methanol Production using a Double Fluidized-bed Two Membranes Reactor

Nowadays, hydrogen and methanol are attractive prospects because of lower emission compared to the other energy sources and their special application in fuel cell technology, which are now widely regarded as key energy solution for the 21st century. These two chemicals also can be utilized in transportation, distributed heat and power generation and energy storage systems. In this study, a nove...

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...
