System Approach from Biomass Combustion in Packed Bed Reactor

Abstract

A simple algorithm originally proposed by Choong, Paterson and Scott (2002) was tested on a model of an isothermal controlled-cycled stirred tank reactor with substrate inhibition kinetics, (r = 1 ~c). In previous work, this reacting system had been shown to exhibit steady-state multiplicity. The transition period of this system to the stable steady state is sometimes characterized by very slow change followed by a very rapid convergence to the stable steady state. Tests of the Choong-Paterson-Scott algorithm showed that the feature, which prevents premature termination of the calculations prior to reaching the true steady state, is very useful for this system. However, tests of the stopping criterion showed that the other feature of reducing the computing time was not realized in this system.

Industrial Application of Rice Husk as an Alternative Fuel in Cement Production for CO2 Reduction

“…(Purvis et al, 2004). By using proper system configuration, biomass utilization in the cement industry showed prospective results (Le et al, 2007). Several types of alternative energy sources that have the potential to be used include used tires, municipal solid waste (MSW), Spent pot liners, plastic waste, Sewage sludge, Solvent and spent oil, and Agricultural biomass waste (Rahman et al, 2015 andUsón et al, 2013).…”
