The model;γ = exp〔〔lnt/2.9206〕1.3〕 shows that the quantity of evaporated water during the drying process is dependent on the drying time, with the evaporating surface being constant. It was found that the validity of the model is rooted on the expression lnγ = (lnt/Logβ)N where both sides of the equation are correspondingly almost equal. The maximum deviation of the model-predicted quantity of evaporated water from the corresponding experimental value is less than 19% which is quite within the acceptable deviation range of experimental results. Water evaporation rate as obtained from experiment and derived model were evaluated to be 0.0536 and 0.0337g mins -1 respectively.展开更多

In this paper, the influence of the coolant temperature on the CTM process is investigated from two aspects, which are the performance analyses of the reactor and the overall process and the energy integration of by-product steam. The results reveal that the coolant temperature plays a key role in the CTM process optimization. When the coolant temperature is reduced to 187 ℃, though low-pressure steam is generated, the techno-economic performance of the whole process is greatly improved: the energy/exergy efficiency is increased by 4-9%, energy cost is saved by 37.1%, income is increased by 5.4 M$/year, and the C02 emission is reduced by 21.3%.展开更多
