Flash combustion

Finely divided solids such as coal or pyrites can be burned (or roasted) in a flash combustion chamber which operates as follows. The raw material is fed into a ball mill pulverizer, and the small particles are swept by air into the combustion chamber where they bum. A tangential gas take off duct from the chamber promotes swirling of the gas, and the layer of burnt particles of ash settle to the bottom of the chamber from which they can periodically be removed. The hot gases are cooled in a waste heat boiler where further fines settle out. The cooled gas goes to an SO2 recovery system in the case of pyrites. [Pg.52]

The flow rates can be checked by applying overall compound balances. The above were mol balances on the elements so the checks will be in moles also. [Pg.53]

Based on the process drawn in the diagram, what is the kg recycle / kg feed if the amount of W waste is 100 kg The known compositions are inserted on the process diagram. [Pg.54]

This is a steady state problem without reaction comprised of three subsystems, the process, the separator, and the mixing point. [Pg.54]


The large size of nuclear power plant enclosures and the relatively small amounts of readily ignitable fuel in those enclosures make flash combustion unlikely therefore, the concentration is on the fire growth phase. [Pg.198]

The literature provides little information on the effects of thermal radiation from flash fires, probably because thermal radiation hazards from burning vapor clouds are considered less significant than possible blast effects. Furthermore, flash combustion of a vapor cloud normally lasts no more than a few tens of seconds. Therefore, the total intercepted radiation by an object near a flash fire is substantially lower than in case of a pool fire. [Pg.146]

Flash combustion of the sample in the combustion reactor is a key feature of the NA 1500. It results when the sample is dropped into the combustion reactor which has been enriched with pure oxygen. The normal temperature in the combustion tube is 1020°C and reaches 1700-1800°C during the flash combustion. [Pg.85]

Commercial combustion elemental analyzers perform a flash combustion, converting samples to CO2, H2O, N2, and SO2 simultaneously. These different gases are then chemically trapped, converted, or separated on GC columns and measured in a continuous flow mass spectrometer. This technique allows the determination... [Pg.31]

A key to elemental analysis is dynamic flash combustion, which creates a short burst of gaseous products, instead of slowly bleeding products out over several minutes. This feature is important because chromatographic analysis requires that the whole sample be injected at once. Otherwise, the injection zone is so broad that the products cannot be separated. [Pg.638]

In dynamic flash combustion, the tin-encapsulated sample is dropped into the preheated furnace shortly after the flow of a 50 vol% O2/50 vol% He mixture is started (Figure 27-8). The Sn capsule melts at 235°C and is instantly oxidized to Sn02, thereby liberating 594 kJ/mol, and heating the sample to 1 700°-l 800°C. If the sample is dropped in before very much Oz is present, decomposition (cracking) occurs prior to oxidation, which minimizes the formation of nitrogen oxides. (Flammable liquid samples would be admitted prior to any 02 to prevent explosions.)... [Pg.639]

Plants in Europe sometimes use the mineral pyrites (the desired compound in the pyrites is FeS2) as a source of SO2 for the production of sulfite pulping liquor. Pyrite rock containing 48.0 % sulfur is burned completely by flash combustion. All of the iron forms F C>4 in the cinder (the solid product), and a negligible amount of SO3 occurs in either the cinder or the product gas. The gas from such a furnace is passed through milk of lime (CaO in water) absorbers to produce bisulfite pulping liquor. The exit gas from the absorber analyzes SQ 0.7 %, O2 2.9 % and N2 96.4 %. [Pg.51]

The CF-IRMS analytical method for sulphur is based on rapid oxidation of the samples by flash combustion at 1800°C. The released gases pass through a catalytic-oxidation-reduction column reactor from this they are chromatographically separated in a 0.8 m packed FIFE column, and then finally analysed in the mass spectrometer. The analytical cycle time is c. 430 s. The size of the samples analysed is optimized when possible to avoid potential linearity effects. One standard is analysed after every five samples, and a blank is run routinely after 10 analyses as a check. [Pg.314]

For fuel applications, a popular SBO derivative is methyl soyate (SBO methyl ester, also known as Soy Gold) (J). This biodiesel has several advantages over diesel fuel from petroleum sources because it is biodegradable, has a high flash combustion temperature, contains negligible amount of sulfur, is neutral with respect to carbon dioxide emission, and can potentially reduce many harmful exhaust emissions. Methyl soyate is also an increasingly useful industrial solvent for grease removal. [Pg.80]

Oxygen flash combustion was performed with 40 mg dried material. Arsenic is extracted out of the flask with 12 M HCl and 20% Kl solution added to reduce As(V). As(III) is extracted completely twice with benzene and reextracted with 0.1 M HCl for determination. The results... [Pg.246]
