Abstract

The attrition of hematite particles for use in the chemical looping combustion process was investigated using a cold flow jet cup test. Jet cup attrition experiments are commonly used for bulk attrition testing of fluidized bed catalyst. The results indicate that the particle attrition in the jet cup cold flow experiments arises from surface abrasion due to particle-particle and particle-wall interactions. Experiments indicate that the measured cumulative mass loss increases with attrition time. However, the attrition rate decreases sharply at the early stage of attrition, and gradually, the rate decline slows and approaches a constant value with increasing attrition time. Furthermore, the influence of inlet gas velocity and solid inventory is discussed. As inlet gas velocities increase, the measured cumulative mass loss also increases. However, as the solid inventory increases, the cumulative mass loss decreases. The results also show that the jet cup experiments quantitatively compare with low magnitude tangential forces which is an indication of attrition through abrasion as the primary mechanism. It is determined through particle size distributions before and after which show a small shift of the main peaks with no peak broadening while producing a small number of fines. By using the mass of abraded finesmore »« less

Applications of tribology to determine attrition by wear of particulate solids in CFB systems

Journal Article Bayham, Samuel C. ; Breault, Ronald ; Monazam, Esmail - Powder Technology

In recent years, much attention has been focused on the development of novel technologies for carbon capture and chemicals production that utilize a circulating fluidized bed (CFB) configuration; examples include chemical looping combustion and circulation of temperature swing adsorbents in a CFB configuration for CO ₂ capture. A major uncertainty in determining the economic feasibility of these technologies is the required solids makeup rate, which, among other factors, is due to impact and wear attrition at various locations, including standpipes, cyclones, and the gas jets in fluid beds. While correlations have been developed that estimate the attrition rates at thesemore »« less

A WEAR MODEL FOR DIESEL ENGINE EXHAUST VALVES

Technical Report Blau, Peter Julian

The work summarized here comprises the concluding effort of a multi-year project, funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Vehicle Technologies. It supports the development of a better understanding of advanced diesel engine designs in which enhanced power density, energy efficiency, and emissions control place increasing demands upon the durability of engine materials. Many kinds of metallic alloys are used in engines depending on the operating stresses, temperatures, and chemical environments. Exhaust valves, for example, are subjected to high temperatures and repetitive surface contacts that place demands on durability and frictional characteristics of the materials. Valves must continuemore »« less

Generation of graphite particles by sliding abrasion and their characterization

Journal Article Troy, Raymond S. ; Ghosh, Tushar K. ; Loyalka, Sudarshan K. ; ... - Nuclear Technology

Characterization of graphite particles (dust) produced by abrasion that would occur in a pebble bed reactor is of interest for reasons of safety, operation, and maintenance. To better understand this abrasion and particle generation, we have built a test apparatus to produce particles by sliding abrasion in a 1% to 5% relative humidity air environment. We have used a commercial-grade graphite in our experiments and have generated size distributions for the abraded particles. We have also fit lognormal functions to those size distributions (for use in computer codes); determined particle shapes; measured temperature and humidity during the tests; measured andmore »« less

Attrition Resistant Iron-Based Catalysts For F-T SBCRs

Technical Report Adeyinka A. Adeyiga

The Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) reaction provides a way of converting coal-derived synthesis gas (CO+ H{sub 2}) to liquid fuels. Since the reaction is highly exothermic, one of the major problems in control of the reaction is heat removal. Recent work has shown that the use of slurry bubble column reactors (SBCRs) can largely solve this problem. The use of iron-(FE) based catalysts is attractive not only due to their low cost and ready availability, but also due to their high water-gas shift activity which makes it possible to use these catalysts with low H{sub 2}/CO ratios. However, a serious problem withmore »« less

Effects of sorbent attrition on utilization

Technical Report Keener, T.C. ; Khang, Soon-Jai ; Lee, S.K.

Attrition of surface product levers of sulfite/sulfate may be the key to substantially increasing sorbent utilization in new dry scrubbing processes. This conclusion has been reached from research results obtained from new gas/solid contacting methods such as the Circulating Fluidized Bed Absorber and the Limestone Emission Control method. An additional savings may be reduced by the use of large initial sorbent, particle sizes which greatly reduces the cost of grinding and sorbent preparation. The objectives of project 1.7 were then to study attrition of sorbent particles in a systematic fashion in order to determine how to use attrition to increasemore »« less
