Abstract
The conversion of solid fuels by drying, pyrolysis, devolatilization and gasification in a packed or moving bed is a complex process. This book presents both analysis of and simulation methods for the entire process based around the mechanisms taking place on different time and length scales. The author's analysis distinguishes between relevant process and mechanisms of minor importance, resulting in the newly developed Discrete Particle Method (DPM). Contrary to the Euler approach, this considers a particle with its conversion processes attached to it, as an individual entity of a packed bed. Three major areas of the thermal conversion of solid fuels are thus identified and dealt with individually by simulation methods.
