Emission characteristics of oxy-fuel combustion of crude oil in a fluidized bed combustor

چکیده مقاله

One of the most important thermo-chemical methods for heat and electricity generation is combustion process;however, it has become a serious problem for researchers in the field of green chemistry due to high emissions and pollutants. In this paper, a modeling study of crude oil combustion was carried out based on the rate of reactions and combustor characteristics. To evaluate the potential of crude oil for heat and power generation, the influence of residence time of droplets and system pressure on green house gas emissions was studied.Results obtained from model were validated against the experimental data of crude oil combustion and found to be in a good agreement
