Understanding apparent kinetics of single large fuel particle combustion is of significance to the design and optimization of grate-firing and circulating fluidized bed boilers. Based on the concept of finite reaction zone approximation, a simple heterogeneous single particle model was formulated to consider the effects of external gas film, ash la...

To determine the effects of minerals inside char particles and bed materials, the process and mechanism of char combustion in a fluidized bed were studied using a Micro Fluidized Bed Reactor Analyzer. A demineralization procedure using HCl and HF was employed to remove the minerals from pyrolyzed char samples. Raman spectroscopy was used to study t...

Char-pellet combustion is studied with the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) including sodium release and the ash inhibition effect on oxygen diffusion in the porous char. The sodium release and the shrinking of the char pellet are simulated by accounting for the reactions occurring both in the solid and gas phases. The combustion of a single char pel...

A kinetic study of the oxy-combustion of chars obtained from two Polish steam coals was conducted. A comparative study was focused on the data analysis concerning oxy-combustion of coal chars collected from two thermobalances, which differed in construction, design of crucibles, sample size and gas flow direction. The influence of individual factor...
