Challenges and enablers in fluidization technology
AIChE Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Gas–solid fluidized beds provide excellent heat and mass transfer for high‐throughput operations from coating to catalytic conversion and underpin emerging low‐carbon technologies. Yet industrial reliability, scale‐up, and control lag scientific understanding, particularly as finer, stickier, and more variable feedstocks increasingly challenge

The application of biomass ashes in sewage sludge management – a SWOT analysis
E3S Web of Conferences, 2018 Biomass plays an important role amongst renewable energy sources and for this reason, it is sometimes called as “future fuel”. According to different statistics, the share of biomass in renewable energy production is in excess of 50% and rising. The main

Experimental Study of Combustion Chamber Performance Utilizing Biochar from Empty Fruit Bunch (EFB) as Fuel with Variation in Excess Air [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesPalm oil mill waste is abundantly available in Indonesia as biomass. However, the inorganic part of biomass fuels causes problems related to the ash generated, leading to slagging and fouling.

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Chemical‐looping gasification (CLG) offers a promising route for renewable biomass valorization, yet conventional oxygen carrier regeneration with O₂/H₂O is energy‐intensive and often produces low‐quality syngas. Here, we develop an inverse ZrO2/Co3O4 oxygen carrier that enables selective biochar oxidation and efficient lattice‐oxygen transfer

CFD Modeling of Combustion in Biomass Furnace
Energy Procedia, 2017 Abstract Due to the need for the optimization of industrial furnaces Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is an important and indispensable tool for understanding for instance the mixing between flue gases, combustion air and the pollutant formation. This paper reports a computational fluid dynamics analysis of an industrial biomass boiler.

A new drag and lift correlation for spherocylinders from fully resolved Immersed Boundary Method
AIChE Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Many industrial processes deal with non‐spherical particles, e.g., mineral mining and biomass conversion. It is crucial to understand the particles' hydrodynamics to control and optimize these processes. To extend the current state‐of‐the‐art from arrays of spherical particles to spherocylindrical particles, we performed extensive particle ...
