Besides being one of the best Clean Coal Technologies, fluidized
beds are also proving to be the most practical option for biomass
conversion. Although the technology is well established, the field
lacks a comprehensive guide to the design and operating principles
of fluidized bed boilers and gasifiers. With more than 30 years of
research and industrial experience, Prabir Basu answers this
pressing need with Combustion and Gasification in Fluidized Beds.
This book is a versatile resource that explains how fluidized
bed equipment works and how to use the basic principles of
thermodynamics and fluid mechanics in design while providing
insight into planning new projects, troubleshooting existing
equipment, and appreciating the capabilities and limitations of the
process. From hydrodynamics to construction and maintenance, the
author covers all of the essential information needed to
understand, design, operate, and maintain a complete fluidized bed
system. It is a must for clean coal technology as well as for
biomass power generation.
Beginning with a general introduction to fossil or biofuel
conversion choices, the book surveys hydrodynamics, fundamentals of
gasification, combustion of solid fuels, pollution aspects
including climate change mitigation, heat transfer in fluidized
beds, the design and operation of bubbling and circulating
fluidized bed boilers, and various supporting components such as
distributor grates, feeding systems, and gas-solid separators.
