- Abstract
- The agglomeration behaviour of three biomass fuels (exhausted and virgin olive husk and
pine seed shells) during fluidized bed combustion in a lab-scale reactor was studied by
means of SEM/EDX analysis of bed agglomerate samples. The effect of the fuel ash
composition, bed temperature and sand particle size on agglomeration was investigated.
The study was focused on the main fuel ash components and on their interaction with the
bed sand particles.
Agglomeration was favoured by high temperature, small sand size, a high fraction of K
and Na and a low fraction of Ca and Mg in the fuel ash. An initial fuel ash composition close
to the low-melting point eutectic composition appears to enhance agglomeration. The
agglomerates examined by SEM showed a hollow structure, with an internal region
enriched in K and Na where extensive melting is evident and an external one where sand
particles are only attached by a limited number of fused necks. Non-molten or partially
molten ash structures deposited on the sand surface and enriched in Ca and Mg were also
observed. These results support an ash deposition-melting mechanism: the ash released
by burning char particles inside the agglomerates is quantitatively deposited on the sand
surface and then gradually embedded in the melt. The low-melting point compounds in the
ash migrate towards the sand surface enriching the outermost layer, while the ash
structure is progressively depleted of these compounds. (literal)
