The fast pyrolysis process is developed to produce liquid bio oil from biomass. In the discussed process the required thermal energy is extracted from a circulating fluidized bed boiler (CFB) as hot sand fed into the pyrolysis reactor. Residual char and uncondensed gases from the pyrolysis process are fed back and combusted in the boiler. Thus, the pyrolysis and the boiler processes are interco...

The use of boiler wood-fired is fairly common equipment utilized in steam generation for energy production in small industries. The boiler activities are considered dangerous and heavy, mainly due to risks of explosions and the lack of mechanization of the process. This study assessed the burden of physical labor that operators of boilers are subjected during the workday. Assessment of these co...

This work describes a large reclaimed water source heat pump system (RWSHPS) and elaborates on the composition of the system and its design principles. According to the characteristics of the reclaimed water and taking into account the initial investment, the project is divided into two stages: the first stage adopts distributed heat pump heating system and the second adopts the combination of ...

Solid Recovered Fuels made from commercial/industrial and MSW type waste streams containing high heat value plastics do offer a number of synergies for biomass combustors [1]. The paper covers technical and operational synergies to increase biomass combustion efficiency in a grate fired system typical for waste to energy technology. Results from small laboratory scale tests have proven a more s...

analyzing efficiency in each economic sector to adopt policies for optimal use of production factors and avoid wasting resources is important. in this study, in order to have a more comprehensive evaluation of the performance of each unit, efficiency of broiler firms was measured using bounded data envelopment analysis which determines position of each unit relative to efficient and inefficient...

The rigorous development and veri cation of a boiler system speci cation is presented. Part I shows how the boiler system controller can be developed in a series of elaboration steps in which variables that directly re ect plant conditions are replaced by variables representing sensed, communicated values. Part II shows how the safety of the system can be assessed by rst verifying safety relati...

This paper presents an approach to control pluggage of a coal-fired boiler. The proposed approach involves statistics, data partitioning, parameter reduction, and data mining. The proposed approach was tested on a 750 MW commercial coal-fired boiler affected with a fouling problem that leads to boiler pluggage that causes unscheduled shutdowns. The rare-event detection approach presented in the...

In this work, multiple model control of a boiler-turbine system is studied. Multiple linear local models are obtained through piecewise linearization. A bank of Kalman filters is constructed using these local models. States and model parameters used for future predictions within the predictive control are updated online through computation of probability density functions. Simulations show that...

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are carcinogenic or mutagenic and are important toxic pollutants in the flue gas of boilers. Two industrial grade biomass boilers were selected to investigate the characteristics of particulate-bound PAHs: one biomass boiler retro-fitted from an oil boiler (BB1) and one specially designed (BB2) biomass boiler. One coal-fired boiler was also selected for c...
