The scale-up of bubbling fluidized bed reactors to commercial size is a complex and
troublesome endeavor. In particular, the proper scale-up of the hydrodynamics and chemical …

In many processes proposed for biorefineries, recycling procedures, and industrial or
agricultural production processes, residue is generated which could be further transformed …

This work compares time, frequency and state-space analyses of pressure measurements
from fluidized beds. The experiments were carried out in a circulating fluidized bed …

This year, 2022, we celebrate the 100-year anniversary of the commercialization of the
fluidized bed reactor. In those years, many new processes have been developed, with many …

Calcium Loo** CO 2 capture technology has made vast progress within the last 10 years
and has become a viable option for efficient CO 2 capture from power plant flue gases …

Similitude is a powerful tool which allows a small laboratory experiment at ambient
conditions to simulate a much larger commercial fluidized bed. The scaling laws for bed …

The world-wide consumption of natural gas (NG) and other fossil fuels (eg, coal and crude
oil) is ever increasing. However, most CO2 resulting from either NG combustion or other …

The objective of this paper is to review experimental and theoretical studies of gas-solid
fluidization at elevated temperatures and pressures. The survey begins with the low velocity …

Over the past decade, the prospect of climate change resulting from anthropogenic CO2 has
become a matter of growing public concern. Not only is the reduction of CO2 emissions …

Simulations of large-scale gas-particle flows using coarse meshes and the filtered two-fluid
model approach depend critically on the constitutive model that accounts for the effects of …
