The development of intensification technology for spouted beds has become a current
research focus, and an effective way to improve the efficiency of spouted beds is to reform …

The thermal pyrolysis of three different polyolefin plastics (HDPE, LDPE and PP) has been
carried out in a conical spouted bed reactor. This technology is especially interesting …

With globalization, growing popularization and changes in dietary habits where more
processed food is consumed, a generation of food wastes and by-products has increased …

This paper describes the hydrodynamic and heat transfer performance of a pilot-plant scale
conical spouted bed reactor designed for the pyrolysis of biomass wastes. The spouted bed …

In this paper, a new flow regime is identified by applying an umbrella-like baffle in a
rectangular spout fluidized bed and studied by Computational Fluid Dynamics-Discrete …

The spouted bed regime is an alternative to fixed and fluidized beds due to the excellent gas-
solid contact and the high reduction in operating pressure drop. Nevertheless, the most …

The combination of delocalized units for the fast pyrolysis of biomass to produce bio-oil
followed by centralized units for the gasification of bio-oil appears as an economically …

Spouted bed dryers are well known for their high efficiency at low and moderate
temperatures. The design of industrial scale dryers requires the estimation of heat and mass …

Particle entrainment is a serious problem in spouted bed contactors when operation is
carried out using beds made up of ultrafine particles, irregular ones and fine and coarse …

The hydrodynamics and the influence of the geometric and operating factors on the
minimum spouting velocity have been studied in draft tube conical spouted beds with …
