The products generated from a fixed bed pyrolysis unit of solid waste materials were quantitatively characterized, and their energy potential was determined, in order to evaluate suitability as sources. An elemental analyzer, bomb calorimeter, an X-ray fluorescence spectrometer, Couette viscometer TG-MS (thermogravimetric-mass spectrometry) analyzer employed for the measurements. Biochars obtai...

This study presents a comprehensive dynamic process simulation model of 1 MW th circulating fluidized bed test facility applied for lignite and refuse-derived fuel co-combustion. The developed describes the riser supplying system with high level detail considering heat transfer, gas-solid interaction, combustion, fluid dynamics. was first tuned at two steady-state operation points then validate...

This study characterises materials that belong to the group of refuse-derived fuels (RDF). regarded as an alternative fuel is derived from industrial, municipal solid and commercial wastes. The aim this evaluate quality waste composition, demonstrate statistically different values energy efficiency waste. Data on incinerated were collected two sources. basic physical chemical parameters include...

The benefits of using alternative fuels (AFs) in the cement industry include reduction of the use of non-renewable fossil fuels and lower emissions of greenhouse gases, since fossil fuels are replaced with materials that would otherwise be degraded or incinerated with corresponding emissions and final residues. Furthermore, the use of alternative fuels maximizes the recovery of energy. Seven di...

The main objective of this paper is to explore the economic and financial feasibility risks of power generation through Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) in Western Province of Sri Lanka to minimize environmental impacts of both MSW and burning of fossil fuel for electricity generation. This research recommends the use of thermal technologies such as gasification or pyrolysis even though it associate...

Solid Refuse Fuel (SRF) manufacturing facilities process 4.72 million tons of waste annually. The residues generated after SRF products account for 35–40% the input waste, and most them are finally disposed in landfills. flow management status were investigated, from using municipaland industrial respectively, separated by particle size. appropriate separation conditions according to characteri...
