Heating, combustion

Significant waste heat may be recovered from the high (about 600°C) kiln off-gas. Pre-heating combustion air or feed ore improves the energy efficiency of the process. Reduction of barite in a fluid bed with CO and/or hydrogen has been performed on an experimental scale.

It is standard practice in many boiler plant designs to incorporate an economizer (to heat FW) and an air heater (to heat combustion air) in the flue-gas exit system. 

In Micro Dumas combustion (CHN analysis) the sample is vaporised and carried by a stream of CO2 over nickel oxide at 1000 °C to oxidise the sample to CO2, H2O and N2. Nickel reduces nitrogen oxides in the heated combustion tube. Carbon monoxide, formed by reduction of CO2 by nickel, is oxidised by passage through hopcalite at 110°C. Traces of...

The heat combustion of a compound is the enthalpy change for the complete oxidation of the compound. Thus for CH4, it is of the order of 192 K cals/mole. 

Class I hazardous atmospheres are characterized as areas containing flammable vapors escaping from a flammable or heated combustible liquid and areas containing flammable gases. 

The quantity of flammable liquids or gases or heated combustibles can be indicative of the need for fixed water spray fire protection. Table 8-4, developed from FM Data Sheet 7-14, suggests quantities of flammables where fixed water spray fire protection should be considered based on one insurance provider s guidance. Some company internal guidelines and practices allow up to 5,000 gal (18,927 I) in the largest vessel before water spray protection is recommended. Additional guidance on fixed fire protection is available in API Publication 2030, Application of Water Spray Systems for Fire Protection in the Petroleum Industry, (API, 1998).

For equipment, tanks, and vessels containing flammables or heated combustible liquids, their steel structural supports, legs, and anchors should normally be fireproofed for a 2-hour fire resistance rating. Some typical examples of where fireproofing should be applied are ... 

For those process vessels containing a significant quantity of flammables or heated combustibles, a combination of passive and active fire protection should be considered in addition to manual firefighting. This additional protection is usually in the form of fireproofing and fixed sprinkler or directional water spray. Additional vessel protection should be applied as follows ...

The Analytical section has been subjected to some changes. An electrically heated combustion furnace, some new methods of analysis, and the method of Rast for the determination of molecular weights, are also described. Chapter XLIV. on tests for some common organic substances has been completely rewritten. 

The ratio (10) that we obtain is so small that there is no need to attempt to establish more exactly the relation between the heat transfer and heat of reaction in the various theories of normal combustion [3, 4, 15-18], or the accuracy of the temperature differences in the detonation wave, or to undertake other similar operations which can in no way change the basic results the smallness of the heat flux in the direction of propagation of detonation the adiabatic character (which holds with great accuracy as long as we do not consider heat losses to the walls of the tube) of the chemical reaction in the detonation wave the impossibility of any noticeable role of heat transfer from the heated combustion products in ignition of the fresh, unreacted gas. 

An exothermic reaction gives off heat. Combustion reactions are exothermic reactions because they produce heat. Since the energy is a product of the reaction, it is shown on the product side of the equation. 

The heat combustion (AH) of tungsten carbide at 300 K is -285.65 kcal/mole WC, and the reaction is WC(s) + (5/2)02(g) - W03(s) + C02(g). Compute the heat for the same reaction if it takes place in a constant-volume bomb calorimeter at 300 K. Assume that the gases behave ideally and that corrections to standard states are negligible for solid species. 

SAFETY PROFILE Poison by ingestion and intraperitoneal routes. A skin and eye irritant. Avoid the vapor produced by heating. Combustible when exposed to heat or flame reacts with oxidizers. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and fumes. See also TIN COMPOUNDS.
