Oxygen-Carrier-Aided Combustion Technology for Solid-Fuel Conversion in Fluidized Bed - Lunbo Duan Lin Li Kartoniert (TB)

This open access book surveys the development of OCAC technology in the last decade for solid fuel conversion in fluidized beds. The scientific concerns including combustion and emission characteristics ash-related problems OC aging and so on are summarized and analyzed. Beyond this new concepts like OCAC with Oxy-PFBC OCAC coupled with staged fuel conversion OCAC in rotatory kilns and multi-functional OCAC are proposed so as to promote the applications of OCAC to various fields in the future. Moreover this book also outlines the perspectives for future research and development of OC AC. As an emerging technology extensive studies and investigations are still necessary to fill in the gap from the fundamental understanding of the technology to its industrial demonstrations. Nevertheless we believe that this book provides novel insights for the readership of energy and combustion and stimulate meaningful follow-on research on OCAC technology.
