Description and results of the long trials carried out at the demonstration plant with considerations and “guidelines” for the long run tests.
In this report, an updated experimental text matrix for tests in the 120 kW USTUTT mini-pilot based on outcomes of the first experimental campaign and experimental test matrix for tests in the drop tube reactors at CSIC and TSIU is defined.
In this deliverable first results of the characterization of the raw meal used in the demonstration trials at BUZZI cement plant in Vernasca under relevant entrained flow conditions are presented: The focus of this report is on the achieved calcinati
This report will summarize the findings of the comparative characterization test with various raw meal qualities obtained in the 120 kW test rig at USTUTT. This will also include a comparison to the demonstration tests in WP3.
This Deliverable includes the experimental results obtained in a drop tube furnace (L=6.5 m, ID=0.08 m) and in a thermogravimetric set-up available at INCAR-CSIC to determine the intrinsic calcination and carbonation kinetics for various raw meals
The work of 5.1.1 will be extended to several other promising raw meals to be used for the tests at the demonstration plant Mechanistic description of bellite formation, depending on aggregation levels of Ca and Si in the raw meals,will be included
In this deliverable, new models for the global pilot plant and for the coupled calciner and carbonator reactors are presented and validated against previous simulations. CFD simulations of the splash boxes for calciner and carbonator indicate that
The report describes the final 1D and 3D model frames for interconnected calciner and carbonator reactors. This includes decription of submodels and underlying model theories as well as sensitivity analyses of the reactor system operation.
The 1D and 3D simulation tools, which are developed in Task 5.2 are applied to simulate the demo scale units. The report describes the modelled flows and reactions.
The purpose of this deliverable is to evaluate the energy – environmental performances of a full-scale cement plant integrated with the CaL Entrained Flow Reactors (EFR) system. The integrated CaL configuration is analyzed in details through a sens
