DOWNLOAD EBOOKPower Generation from Solid Fuels introduces the different technologies to produce heat and power from solid fossil (hard coal, brown coal) and renewable (biomass, waste) fuels, such as combustion and gasification, steam power plants and combined cycles etc. The book discusses technologies with regard to their efficiency, emissions, operational behavior, residues and costs. Besides proven state of the art processes, the focus is on the potential of new technologies currently under development or demonstration. The main motivation of the book is to explain the technical possibilities for reducing CO2 emissions from solid fuels. The strategies which are treated are: more efficient power and heat generation technologies, processes for the utilisation of renewable solid fuels, such as biomass and waste, and technologies for carbon capture and storage. Power Generation from Solid Fuels provides, both to academia and industry, a concise treatment of industrial combustion of all types of solid, hopefully inspiring the next generation of engineers and scientists.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe primary objective of the Phase I ERDA High-Temperature Turbine Technology (HTTT) Program was to provide a ''Program and System Definition'' of the three-phase program which would culminate in the testing of a Technology Readiness Vehicle (TRV) at the end of a six-year period. The TRV is designed for use in a combined cycle using coal-derived fuels at a firing temperature of 2600°F; growth capability to 3000°F is projected. The Phase I results reported are based on a 2600°F gas turbine burning coal-derived fuels. The following major areas are covered: overall plant design descriptions; systems design descriptions; turbine subsystem design; combustor design; phase II proposed program; and phase III proposed program. Details regarding final results of each of these areas are presented. It is concluded that the water-cooled gas turbine in combined cycle has been shown to be capable of extremely attractive levels of performance, both in terms of efficiency and specific output. Coupled with the ability to tolerate a wide range of coal-derived fuels with minimum fuel treatment, an extremely attractive system is presented for the generation of electric power. Future technology development of the high-firing-temperature water-cooled gas turbine is expected to result in the commercial introduction of this concept in combined cycles by the late 1980's or early 1990's.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKParticle separation from hot gases is a challenging task, especially for nanoparticles. Therefore, it is usually avoided by quenching the hot gas to conduct particle separation at a more convenient temperature. In these cases, valuable high-caloric heat is either not utilized at all or only inefficiently because of particle deposition on the heat exchanger surfaces. Valuable potential is thus wasted, as high-temperature processes are already an essential part of many industries and become increasingly relevant for other industrial sectors (e.g., pyrolytic processes in the circular economy). To reduce operating costs and environmental impact, the efficient use of resources (especially fossil fuels) is an absolute necessity. To tackle this pending problem, the concept of high-temperature electrostatic precipitation is investigated in this doctoral thesis. In an electrostatic precipitator, particles are charged by charge carriers produced in a corona discharge near the discharge electrode. Charged particles migrate due to the electric field and subsequently precipitate onto the collection electrode. This doctoral thesis clearly demonstrates the feasibility of nanoparticle removal from hot gases at up to 1073 K (800 °C) using electrostatic precipitation while presenting novel insights into the charge carrier properties and their distribution, the influence of thermionic emission on the operation of electrostatic precipitators, and the fundamentals of particle charging at high temperatures.
