A kutatási téma leírása:
a.) Antecedents: Fluidized beds offer several advantages over traditional energy generation methods from solid fuels, notably low NOX emission, in-process capture of SO2 and the ability to efficiently burn a wide range of low-grade, unequal quality, and potentially problematic fuels (including waste and biomass), as well as mixed fuels. Nowadays rapid growth can be observed in both unit sizes and number of installed units worldwide, which necessitates intensive research activities on technology developments, optimal fuel mix adaptations, and scale-up.
b.) Aim of research: To set up a system of experiments and calculations for evaluating solid fuels regarding their availabilities for fluidized bed conversion.
A well-known advantage of Fluidized Bed Conversion (FBC) is its flexibility against fuel composition and quality. However, not all fuels and fuel mixtures can be applied advantageously, and in many cases some adaptations are necessary. A generally applicable system of experimental and theoretical steps should be elaborated for proving the suitability of any solid fuels questioned by power plant operators.
c.) Tasks, main items, necessary time: Detailed literature study on (i) the FBC technology and development trends, (ii) fuel characterization technologies available in the lab and worldwide, (iii) potential solid fuels including biomass and waste derived fuels, (iiii) modeling of the phenomena in the FBC & scale-up – Setting up the experimental environment, considering especially the available and recently refurbished mid-scale FBC utility – Setting up the modeling environment, considering especially the available numerical tools – Elaborating, testing, and documenting the characterization system – Writing, discussing, and defending the thesis.
Time demand: 4 – 5 years.
d.) Required equipment: Well-equipped laboratory with mid-scale FBC facility (available, to be extended in a small amount, if necessary) See: http://fbc.energia.bme.hu
Modeling software packages (available, to be extended in a small amount, if necessary)
e.) Expected scientific results:
A novel and comprehensive system of fuel evaluation & new theoretical descriptions of part-processes taking place in the FBC. All this verified by experiments.
