In order to investigate the characteristics of the reaction between ammonium sulfite, the main desulfurizing solution, and the flue-gas-contained sulfur dioxide during the process of ammonia-based WFGD (wet flue gas desulfurization) in a power plant, the gas-liquid absorption reaction between...

A method based on fractal geometry is suggested to simulate the porous structure of calcined limestone, in which a model similar to the Menger sponge is employed for the porous calcine. The bulk fractal dimension is calculated on the basis of the experimentally obtained pore-size distribution...

In developing a mathematical model for a CFB boiler we use earlier work. Our model includes mathematical descriptions of the underlying physical and chemical processes. It has been applied to simulation of a 12 MW CFB boiler. The calculations agree well with test results.

Lignite-based polygeneration system has been considered as a feasible technology to realize clean and efficient utilization of coal resources. A newly polygeneration system has been proposed, featuring the combination of a 2×300MW circulating fluidized bed (CFB) power plant and atmospheric...

A new system has been developed for clean and highly efficient utilization of coal. The coal is first gasified and the fuel gas is then used for industrial purposes in town gas or as a fuel for gas turbines. The char residue from the gasifier is burned in a circulating fluidized-bed combustor to...

In order to give a better understanding for the selection of suitable absorbents for the novel membrane vacuum regeneration technology (MVR) which has the potential to reduce CO2 energy requirement by utilizing the waste heat or low-grade energy, an experimental study to determine the...

Agglomeration is a major problem in straw combustion in a fluidized bed. This paper presents the results of rice straw combustion experiments carried out under different operating conditions in a bubble-fluidized bed (BFB). The influences of bed material size and type, feeding mode, temperature,...
