The proposed model has pedagogical and practical advantages due to its simplicity. The calculations, whose results are plotted in several graphics, were based on data obtained in laboratory scale experiments. The experiments were carried out with wood chars and the model allows a proper evaluation of physical and chemical phenomena taking place inside the reactor, as well as a fast approach to the pre-design phase, before going towards more complex and time consuming numerical modeling. In the first part of the paper the steady state modeling is compared with the combustion of successive batches of char particles. Afterwards, the performance of a 1 m diameter bed operating from 700℃ to 800℃ is shown.展开更多

At the direct reduction stage, highly volatile wood char was prepared by carbonizing jujube wood at 673 K for 2 h and was used as reducing agent. The results of the direct reduction tests show that at a tem- perature of 1373 K, a char mixing ratio of 0.8, and a reduction time of 10-25 min, the briquettes reached a metal- lization degree of 80% -84% and a residual carbon content of 0.13 -1.98 mass%. Phosphorus remained in the gangue as calcium phosphate after reduction. The results of the melting separation tests show that residual carbon in reduced briquette negatively affects the phosphorus content (W[p]) in hot metal. When the reduced briquettes ob- tained under the aforementioned conditions were used for melting separation, hot metal suitable for basic oxygen steelmaking (w[p]〈0.4 mass%) could not be obtained from metallic briquettes with a residual carbon content more than 1.0 mass~. In contrast, it could be obtained from metallic briquettes with residual carbon content less than 0.35 mass% by mixing with 2%-4% Na2CO3.展开更多

The authors report on a feasible method to characterize graphene sheet content quantitatively in pyrolized carbon materials using an X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectrometer. A direct carbonation at 300℃ followed by catalytic pyrolysis (heat-treatment temperature was set at 700-1400 ℃) under a vacuum condition was used for turning wood waste into pyrolized wood char powders. The graphene content in the samples was calculated through an analysis of full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the carbon (100) crystal plane at around 42°-43° in XRD. Results showed that the FWHM and the calculated graphene sheet content of pyrolized wood char powders depended on the heat-treatment temperature, and the FWHM of wood char powder with well-developed graphene sheets (100%) was determined to be 5.0. In addition, the trend to 100% graphene sheet-contained pyrolized carbon powder was obtained at a heattreatment temperature of 2700 ℃. The resistivity of the wood char powder with 100% graphene sheets was predicted to be 0.01 Ω cm, close to our experimental data of 0.012 and 0.006 Ω cm for commercial graphite and graphene products, respectively.展开更多

Conversion of crude olive pomace into exhausted olive pomace resulted in 10% reduction in calorific value. The net calorific value of crude olive pomace amounts to 92% of its gross calorific value. The ultimate and proximate analyses of crude olive pomace representing the 2006-2008 olive harvest seasons were determined and compared with analyses pertaining to the 2009-2011 olive harvest seasons in Jordan. Controlled charring of crude olive pomace reduced its mass down to about 20%. Pyrolysis thermogravimetric (TG) and differential thermogravimetric (DTG) curves were recorded under nitrogen atmosphere for crude olive pomace and wood samples. Quantitative data on three DTG major peaks are reported for wood samples and crude olive pomace. A comparison based on market price and calorific value of a fuel showed that olive pomace is the most rewarding fuel for domestic space heating in Jordan.展开更多
