Beskrivning

This book is an introduction to the principles governing the use of pressurized fluid bed reactors. The first part of the book is an overview of fluidization and combustion while the second part deals with pressurized fluid bed combustion. This section covers solids preparation, processing, environmental impact and energy concerns. The final chapter details several demonstration plants. This book is an essential source of reference for chemical combustion engineers, process engineers in the metallurgical, chemical and petrochemical industries, and particle technologists. This book should be of interest to combustion engineers, process engineers in the metallurgical, chemical and petrochemical industries and particle technologists.
