Working Principle and Characteristic of RF Dryer
RF dryer is a kind of high efficiency leather drying equipment. Working principle In the high-frequency electric field, the dielectric water in the wet leather will be affected by the electric field, causing molecular disturbance and friction and heat between molecules, so that the moisture in the leather will get enough heat and vaporize, and then the steam will be taken away by the air to ...

Measuring Gases Produced by Waste Gasification to Improve Control and Efficiency
Waste gasification is a type of waste to energy process where waste material is used as a fuel to create heat, electricity or other chemical products. Specifically, in waste gasification, the waste material is decomposed in such a way to produce gaseous products, often known as syngas, a combination of hydrogen, carbon monoxide and some carbon dioxide.Conventional incineration uses heat and ...

Coal Gasifier & Biomass Gasifier
Syngas analyzer apply in gasifier 1. Coal gasifier The coal gasifier can be divided into four modes by the movement pattern of the coal in the gasifier: fixed bed (moving bed), fluidized bed, entrained bed and molten bed. While it can be summarized to atmospheric and high pressure styles according to the gasification operating pressure. Based on the feeding method, the coal gasifier contains ...

Renewable energy to grow 400% by 2040
Increasing competitiveness of wind and solar energy will see renewables grow by over 400% by 2040 if current trends continue, according to new predictions by BP. The oil and gas giant said that renewables would provide around 14% of primary energy by that time, and account for over half the global increase in power generation, which will rise by a third. It expects China to be the ...

Comparison of phosphorus recovery from incineration and gasification sewage sludge ash
Incineration of sewage sludge is a common practice in many western countries. Gasification is an attractive option because of its high energy efficiency and flexibility in the usage of the produced gas. However, they both unavoidably produce sewage sludge ashes, a material that is rich in phosphorus, but which is commonly landfilled or used in construction materials. With current uncertainty ...

Why European policymakers shouldn’t be concerned about security of gas supply
Gastech News: What are the key issues affecting gas companies today? Mark Simons: The biggest issue affecting gas companies within the European gas industry is low prices, because low prices mean less revenue and less profit. To add to that, in Europe, the competition for gas from coal and renewables means that demand is down and that’s shrinking the industry which of course is worrying ...
