Alternative or refuse derived fuels (RDF) are mainly fired in kiln burners, preheater or calciner kilns. Of the greatest importance in this regard is homogenous fuel quality consisting of two-dimensional parts. Alternative fuel for the kiln burner has to be free of disruptive fractions (e.g. metals, stones, glass), which might cause problems in the feeding equipment or the burner itself. ...

The distillation (volatility) characteristics of hydrocarbons have an important effect on their safety and performance, especially in the case of fuels and solvents. The boiling range gives information on the composition, the properties, and the behavior of the fuel during storage and use. Volatility is the major determinant of the tendency of a ...

The Düsseldorf mill specialist Loesche was on the look-out for a dual-fuel burner system to fire lignite dust and heavy oil for a dryer plant. The problem thereby was, however, the characteristics of the coal dust which deviated in its chemical composition from the usual characteristics. First of all, a firing test was carried out at the Körting dust burner test facility to ensure the ...
One of the great success stories of recent technological history is carbon fiber. Light, stronger than steel and corrosion proof, it’s used in everything from airplanes to fishing rods to sailboat masts. Without carbon fiber composites Guy Negre wouldn’t have his air powered cars. It’s the super strong carbon fiber pressure tanks that make the cars possible. Soon cars running on compressed air ...

World Bioenergy 2008 was a key platform for the launch of Petrokraft’s biofuel system PETRO Compact Ecoflame System, or PCES. One important use of the system is to convert industrial oil furnaces to biofuel. Now the Swedish company, which is a leader in the field of combustion and control engineering, is hoping to strengthen its international focus at World Bioenergy 2010. “The trade fair is an ...
Creating fuel from plants seems like a win-win proposition. It reduces dependence on foreign oil, and it doesn't produce the greenhouse gases that cause global warming - at least that's what advocates claim. But biofuels are not without their critics. Some recent research suggests bio fuels could have a greater environmental impact - biodiversity loss, destruction of farmland, and the energy ...
Process dying, heating, and various other applications Custom sizing Ability to accommodate unique process requirements Accommodates low emission needs: CO and NOx Process heating temperatures as needed Waste fuel firing as needed Multiple fuels or single fuel High efficiency arrangement Proper burner type selection for efficiency and process consideration System designed to meet your ...
Metso Corporation's press release on July 11, 2011 at 1:00 p.m. local time Metso solution brings added value to chemical recovery Metso will perform replacement of a chemical recovery boiler for UBE Chemicals in Thailand. With Metso's solution, recovered chemicals can be combusted more efficiently, creating energy extraction benefits with minimal burden on environment. The total value of ...
Combating climate change, while simultaneously getting energy to the two billion people without access to it, are among the central challenges of this generation. But a century-old energy technology that taps steam from hot underground rock seems to provide an answer to this challenge. Geothermal energy is a promising alternative to coal and oil-fired power generation. A project, testing ...
Toray Textiles Europe Ltd, a leader in advanced synthetic fabric manufacture, has achieved impressive energy savings of over 5 per cent per annum through the installation of the Fuel energy saving solution from Maxsys at its state-of-the-art textile production facility in Mansfield. While the UK textile industry may have contracted, Toray is a progressive UK manufacturer that has invested in ...
Maxsys Limited, the Walsall based developer of the energy saving Fuel System, has collaborated with Birmingham University to etch its company logo on a single human hair.

The Fuel System works by applying a finely calibrated ...
A major revision to ASTM International’s standard D396, Specification for Fuel Oils, sets performance specifications for higher amounts of biodiesel blends in conventional fuels. The new grade of B6-B20 could have a significant impact on the heating oil industry while also helping to meet growing consumer and regulatory demand for cleaner-burning low-carbon fuels. The revised standard will ...
On November 30, 2016, the European Commission presented the package on “Clean Energy for All Europeans”. The package contains many well designed proposals but fails to comply with the challenges set by the Paris Agreement. A reduction of the CO2 emissions by 40% by 2030 as compared to 1990 is by far not enough to achieve the 2°C target. The title is misleading. Obviously, clean ...
A railway environmental problem and new combustion regulations encouraged the Swedish waste company IQR to develop new combustion technology. The result was lower emissions, a broader feedstock base and lower oil consumption. The new technology is being presented at the Elmia Recycling to Energy trade fair on 25-27 May in Jönköping, Sweden. Industrial Quality Recycling (IQR) was ...
