Characterization of an Experimental Facility for Bubbling Fluidized Bed Combustor

“…On the world scale, exhaustive research works on experimental small-scale and large-scale fluidized bed combustion facilities have been carried out in the last three decades. Examples of these research works [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] have used different WDF materials including oil shale, lignite, lowgrade coals, industrial wastes, and agricultural wastes. The fluidized bed combustion of these waste materials was done in different experimental facilities with fluidized bed combustor cross section areas ranging from 0.008 m 2 to 36 m 2 and corresponding heights ranging from 1.5 m to 16 m. The results of these research works have proven that the fluidized bed combustion could be applied successfully to a wide variety of waste-derived fuels.…”
