Biomass chemical looping gasification (BCLG) is a complex process for the conversion of biomass using an oxygen carrier, which influenced by various operating parameters. For better understanding this process, steam ilmenite as carrier numerically investigated in work multiphase particle-in-cell (MP-PIC) method, modified Euler–Lagrange approach. As first step, reduced reaction network spouted b...

The CFD-DEM methodology is a popular tool for the study of fluid–particle systems, and there are several programs that permit using it. In this study, we employed it to simulate pseudo-2D spouted bed, comparing performance Ansys Fluent MFiX. results analysed commented on in terms both accuracy computational efforts. Despite similarity setup, MFiX seems perform significantly better. similarities...

Automatic control of a fluidized-bed drying process depends on the availability of an inline sensor to provide accurate measurements of product moisture content. Nearinfrared (NIR) spectroscopy technology provides a potentially noninvasive and nondestructive analytical method that could serve as a sensor option for a wide range of applications. The purpose of this research was to investigate th...
