生物质在流化床中的空气-水蒸气气化研究

以流化床为反应器，对生物质的空气-水蒸气气化特性进行了研究。考察了一些主要参变量，如温度 (700 ℃～900 ℃)、水蒸气/生物质比(0～4.04)、空气当量比(0.19～0.27)以及生物质粒度(0.2 mm～0.9 mm)等对气化结果的影响。在实验研究的条件范围内，生物质产气率在1.43 m3/kg～2.57 m3/kg范围内变化，产气的低热值在6 741 kJ/m3～9 143 kJ/m3范围内变化。实验结果表明：较高的气化温度有利于氢的产生；但气化温度过高会使气体热值下降；与常规的空气气化相比，水蒸气的加入使生物质气化产气率显著提高，但水蒸气加入量过多使气化温度下降，产气率和产气热值降低；生物质颗粒粒度的大小对产气组分的分布和产气率均有影响，较小颗粒的生物质会产生较多的CH4、CO和较少的CO2。     

生物质流化床富氧气化的实验研究

在常压流化床装置上进行了生物质在富氧条件下定向气化的实验研究。实验主要考察了氧的当量比和氧体积分数对气化气组成、碳转化率和气体热值的影响。当量比值是与温度紧密联系的一个量，本实验主要通过调节进料量来改变它的值，随着当量比的变化（0.21～0.29），燃气成分也会改变，其中变化最大的是H2、CO。H2体积分数显著增加，CO和CH4体积分数有降低的趋势，使燃气热值降低；氧体积分数是富氧气化过程中较重要的参数，在实验研究的范围内，发现增大氧气体积分数可以提高H2体积分数及有利于调节H2/CO(体积分数)的比值。当氧气体积分数从21％提高到45％，H2体积分数从20％增加到27.7％，H2/CO(体积分数)从0.38增加到0.75，比较接近合成液体燃料的气体比值。

粉粒流化床中松木生物质热解特性的研究

通过冷模实验考察了双颗粒流化床的流化特性。结果表明,在适宜的气速范围内,双颗粒流化床层内部可保持较好的流化状态。松木生物质在粉粒流化床反应器中的热解和催化热解实验结果表明,生物质热解时挥发分的释放存在一个最快的温度区域,生物质中约92%的挥发分在723 K时即可释放完全。773 K时,生物质热解产物中的无机气体(IOG)、低碳烃气体(HCG)和碳氢化合物液体(HCL)的收率之和只有3.1%。随着热解温度的升高,IOG、HCG和HCL的收率均逐渐增加,1 173 K时,其收率之和达到58.7%,且产物主要以CO为主。CoMo-B催化剂可有效促进生物质催化加氢热解产物的二次气相反应,在863 K下可得到6.3%,轻质芳烃化合物(苯、甲苯、二甲苯和萘)是1 173 K下非催化过程的两倍。

Fluidized beds in flow analysis: use with ion-exchange separation for spectrophotometric determination of zinc in plant digests

A novel strategy for utilization of solid reagents in flow analysis is proposed. Establishment of diffuse and reproducible geometry enables the solid particles to be maintained in constant floating, reflux, and circulating motion inside a mini-chamber. This is efficiently accomplished with pulsed flows, a characteristic of multi-pumping flow systems. Drawbacks inherent in solid-phase packed columns, for example backpressure, preferential pathways, swelling, etc., and some limitations inherent in immobilized reagents are minimised. Spectrophotometric determination of zinc in plants was selected as an application of the technique. Dowex 1-X8 anionic resin was kept freely inside a mini-chamber. Zinc chloro-complexes were adsorbed on the moving particles and derivatization with zincon was performed after elution. Analytical figures of merit and the potential and limitations of the approach are discussed.     

Inorganics distribution in bio oils and char produced by biomass fast pyrolysis: The key role of aerosols

Fast pyrolysis of biomass is a promising process for the preparation of bio-oil dedicated to energy production. Inorganic species originally present in biomass are known to induce problems such as bio-oil instability or deposits and fouling. However the mechanisms of inorganic species release during biomass pyrolysis into the raw bio-oils still remain unclear. The present work focuses on the determination of inorganic distribution in the products from wheat straw and beech wood fast pyrolysis performed in a fluidized bed. More specifically, the bio-oils are fractionated by using a series of condensers. The results show that more than 60 wt.% of the inorganic content of the overall bio-oil is contained in the aerosols. Several possible interpretations for this observation are discussed. It is likely that the inorganics are transported within the aerosols droplets and solid particles which are recovered in the bio-oils, either by mechano-chemical processes, or by entrainment of submicron intermediate liquid compound formed in the first steps of biomass fast pyrolysis.     

Apparent Kinetics of Co-Gasification of Biomass and Vacuum Gas Oil (VGO)

This communication reports the beneficial effects of co-gasification of biomass and residual oil to produce syngas. In this regard, various blends of glucose (a biomass surrogate) to vacuum gas oil (VGO) have been employed to investigate the synergic effects on the gasification process. The non-isothermal co-gasification experiments were conducted in a thermogravimetric analyzer at different heating rates and gasifying agents. The analysis showed that the co-gasification rate increased with the increase of glucose content in the feedstock. The presence of the oxygen in the biomass molecules helped the overall gasification process. The maximum gasification rate of 42.70 wt/min (DTG_max) was observed with 25 wt% glucose containing sample. The use of gasifying agents appeared to have some influence, especially during high temperature gasification of the glucose-VGO blends. At a same gasification temperature, the co-gasification rate of glucose-VGO blends were found to be 125.7 wt/min and 98.59 wt%/min for N₂ and CO₂, respectively. The kinetics of the co-gasification of glucose-VGO blends was conducted based on modified random pore model using TGA experimental data and implemented in MATLAB. The estimated activation energy and rate constants were found to be consistent to the observed co-gasification rates. The apparent activation energies of co-gasification of VGO/biomass blends with different weight percentages shows values ranging 60.56–48.25 kJ/mol. The kinetics analysis suggested that the addition of biomass helped to increase the reaction rate by lowering the activation energy required for accomplishing the reactions compared with petroleum carbonaceous feedstocks. The reaction rate constants isotherms are plotted to show that the k-values are exhibiting similar trends at moderate heating rates between 20 and 60 °C/min. This remark arises due to the nature of the reactions involved which are considered to be inherently similar in this range of heating rate.     

流化床CVD淀积过程中铝膜微结构及表面形貌的研究

考察了在常压流化床CVD反应器中利用三异丁基铝的热分解反应在高折射率玻璃微珠表面淀积铝膜时,淀积温度和时间对铝膜微结构和表面形貌的影响.SEM谱的表面形貌分析表明,提高淀积温度时,铝膜经过三维岛状→孔洞结构→连续致密膜的变化;延长淀积时间,铝膜的晶粒会变粗变大.AES谱的表面化学组成分析表明,在较高的淀积温度下铝膜中碳的残留并不明显,但发生了玻璃微珠基材中Ti,Ba等元素向铝膜中的扩散.Ti的扩散有利于形成连续致密的铝膜.     

Adsorption of basic green 4 onto gasified Glyricidia sepium woodchip based activated carbon: Optimization,characterization, batch and column study

The abundance of gasification char residues which contributed to solid waste management problem is one of the major concerns in biomass gasification industry. This study focuses on synthesizing gasified Glyricidia sepium woodchip based activated carbon (GGSWAC) for the removal of basic green 4 (BG4) dye, evaluating the GGSWAC physicochemical properties and assessing the BG4 adsorption performance in batch and fixed-bed column systems. The optimal conditions of GGSWAC synthesis were at radiation power, time, and impregnation ratio (IR) of 616 W, 1 min and 1.93 g/g, respectively. The surface area (S_BET) and total pore volume (TPV) of GGSWAC were 633.30 m²/g and 0.34 cm³/g, respectively. The Fritz–Schlünder best fitted to the experimental data at all temperatures in the isothermal studies, indicating a monolayer adsorption. The kinetic study showed that BG4 adsorption followed Avrami kinetic model. Based on thermodynamic parameters, the adsorption of BG4 dye onto GGSWAC was an endothermic and spontaneous process. In continuous operation, the Thomas and Yoon–Nelson models successfully predicted BG4 adsorption onto GGSWAC. The low production cost of 0.54 USD/kg showed that GGSWAC is economically feasible for commercialization.     

Current technologies for analysis of biomass thermochemical processing: A review

Pyrolysis and gasification are two of the more promising utilization methods for the conversion of biomass toward a clean fuel source. To truly understand and model these processes requires detailed knowledge ranging from structural information of raw biomass, elemental composition, gas-phase reaction kinetics and mechanisms, and product distributions (both desired and undesired). The various analytical methods of biomass pyrolysis/gasification processing are discussed, including reactor types, analytical tools, and recent examples in the areas of (a) compositional analysis, (b) structural analysis, (c) reaction mechanisms, and (d) kinetic studies on biomass thermochemical processing.
