This review article discusses the effects of inorganic content and mechanisms on raw
biomass and char during gasification. The impacts of the inherent inorganics and externally …

Agglomeration inhibits the smooth operation of fluidized-bed reactors by forming relatively
large agglomerates to interrupt fluidization during gasification or combustion processes …

This review presents recent advances in research on fluidized bed combustion of solid
biomass. While the main focus is on thermochemical processes occurring in fluidized beds …

Gasification of lignocellulosic biomass in a fluidized bed gasifier is a preferred option for
gaseous fuel generation and solid waste management. Erosion, slagging and …

Olivine and alkali-feldspar were utilized in separate campaigns in an indirect dual fluidized
bed gasification campaign with woody biomass as fuel. After three days, both bed materials …

Further improvement of steam parameters is essential to developing biomass-fired
circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boiler technology, which necessitates solving severe …

In this paper, the fusibility of biomass ashes with varying chemical and mineral compositions
were investigated and their mineral phase transformations were characterised in-situ by …

The ash slag formations that can occur in combustion and gasification of solid fuels often
consist of silicate melts that can cause operational problems, eg, bed agglomeration or slag …

Alkali-associated problems are key issues for the efficient use of straw that is available as a
major renewable energy resource worldwide. The effects of six bed materials commonly …

Bed materials provide efficient heat transfer and catalytic function in the thermochemical
conversion of biomass, but their interactions with the fuel remain incompletely understood. In …
