A Victorian brown coal (Loy Yang, LY) was co-fed with char prepared from the same coal in
an atmospheric drop-tube reactor (DTR) at 900 and 950° C in the presence of 50% steam to …

The flow behaviors in the downer of a large-scale triple-bed circulating fluidized bed
(TBCFB) gasifier cold model, which is composed of a downer (Φ 0.1 m× 6.5 m), a bubbling …

Pyrolysis technology has received increasing attention in recent years due to its great
potential in the field of low-rank coal clean and efficient conversion. Since pyrolysis reaction …

Many fuel conversion technologies using dual fluidized bed (DFB) have been developed,
including the chemical looping combustion (CLC), CO2 acceptor, and DFB pyrolysis or …

A downer reactor is ideal for fast pyrolysis during coal gasification as solids holdup
distributions and residence time distribution in the reactor are fairly uniform and residence …
