The 13th International Conference on Fluidization - New Paradigm in Fluidization Engineering
In this study, film coating onto cohesive fine particles was conducted by using a novel rotating fluidized bed coater (RFBC). In order to avoid the formation of agglomeration, baffle plates were equipped inside the RFBC. Coating experiments were conducted under various operating conditions and the coated particles were evaluated based on their physical properties. As a result, coated particles having extremely small degree of agglomeration and favorable prolonged release property of a tracer material could be obtained.

Predictions of global energy usage and demand trends suggest that fossil fuels will remain as the main energy source for the foreseeable future. Unfortunately, the increased amount of anthropogenic carbon emitted during the energy production leads to environmental issues, including climate change. Thus, reducing carbon dioxide emissions in order to stabilize atmospheric CO2 levels is crucial, and this would not be achieved without significant changes in the energy conversion processes and the implementation of carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies. Currently, the geological storage of carbon dioxide is considered to be the most economical method of carbon sequestration, while mineral …

Towards A Theoretical Model Of Segregating Fluidization Of Two-Solid Beds, Bruno Formisani, Rossella Girimonte, Vincenzino Vivacqua
The 13th International Conference on Fluidization - New Paradigm in Fluidization Engineering
Fluidization of beds of two dissimilar solids is modelled by reworking the fundamental equations of fluidization. The approach followed illustrates the relationship between bed suspension and component segregation, as determined by differences in solid density and size. The need for empirical parameters is drastically reduced so that a unique representation of all types of mixture behaviour seems possible.

The 13th International Conference on Fluidization - New Paradigm in Fluidization Engineering
Internally circulating fluidized beds (ICFBs) have been applied to a number of processes and provide a means of exchanging the bed particles from one reaction chamber to the other. Fundamental to this system is a good knowledge of the solids circulation rate (SRR). This paper summarises experimental investigations conducted using a hot tracer technique to measure the solids recirculation flux through an ICFB with a reaction and heat exchange chamber. Possible predictive models which link the bed hydrodynamics to the SRR are also evaluated.

Gross solids circulation of solid phase and its influence on mixing/segregation of a large flotsam particle in beds of finer solids in unconventional fluidized beds has been investigated. A tapered two-dimensional fluidization column and a fluidization column equipped with a diverging cone as gas distributor have been adopted. The hydrodynamics of the gas-solid suspension in the two apparatus has been qualitatively assessed by visual observation and the trajectories of the centre-of-gravity of large flotsam particles have been evaluated to assess the extent of mixing/segregation.

High velocity horizontal gas jets are applied to various industrial processes. In this work, a new thermal technique has been developed to measure the penetration length of horizontal gas jets. Experiments were conducted in a fluidized bed with a height of 1.23m and a rectangular cross section of 0.10m × 0.50m. The fluidized bed particles, which were either petroleum coke or sand, were heated by an in-bed electrical heater to temperatures between 300°C and 500°C. Cold gases, such as helium, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, were injected into the hot fluidized bed via a horizontal nozzle operating over a range of velocities. …

Natural olivine (Mg,Fe)2SiO4 is examined in a dual circulating fluidised bed (DCFB) reactor system of 120 kWth with regard to its reforming activity. Further, the oxygen transport capacity due to redox-cycling of the iron containing part of the olivine is considered. Based on a syngas composition derived from biomass gasification, the olivine is exposed to a surrogate gas mixture of H2, CO, CO2, CH4 and a tar compound (1-methylnaphthalene) at 850 °C. The results show the tar conversion at different tar loads. The investigations reveal that a low content of oxygen is transported by the olivine due to the redox-cycling …

Nanopowders are applied in a wide range of processes, and their use continues to increase. Fluidization is one of the best techniques available to disperse and process nanoparticles. However, nanoparticles cannot be fluidized individually; they fluidize as very porous agglomerates. Often, it is needed to apply an assisting method, such as vibration or microjets, to obtain proper fluidization. In this paper, we give a brief review of the developments in nanopowder fluidization.
