The Chinese high temperature gas-cooled reactor pebble bed module (HTR-PM) demonstration project has attracted increasing attention. In order to support the project, a large-scale heat transfer test facility has been constructed for pebble bed effective thermal conductivity measurement over the whole temperature range (0~1600 ◦C). Based on different heat transfer mechanisms in the randomly pack...

Unpleasant odor emissions have traditionally occupied an important role in environmental concern. In this paper, twin biotrickling filters (BTFs) packed with different packing materials, seeded with Bacillus cereus GIGAN2, were successfully constructed to purify gaseous dimethyl disulfide (DMDS). The maifanite-packed BTF showed superior biodegradation capability to the ceramic-packed counterpar...

Molten slag, which is primarily generated in the blast furnace (BF) cohesive zone, trickles down through coke packed bed form of films, rivulets, or droplets lower zone BF. During its downward flow, there are significant interactions occurring between slag and other phases such as gas, particles, hot metal, fine powders. In terms these interactions, flow behavior can greatly affect BF productiv...
