Chemical looping uses a metal oxide as a solid oxygen carrier. These metal oxide particles replace air (specifically oxygen in the air) in a combustion reaction with a solid, liquid, or gaseous fuel in a fluidized bed, producing solid metal particles from the reduction of the metal oxides and a mixture of carbon dioxide and water vapor, the ...
Particle-laden flows refers to a class of two-phase fluid flow, in which one of the phases is continuously connected (referred to as the continuous or carrier phase) and the other phase is made up of small, immiscible, and typically dilute particles (referred to as the dispersed or particle phase). Fine aerosol particles in air is an example of ...
A solid oxide electrolyser cell (SOEC) is a solid oxide fuel cell set in regenerative mode for the electrolysis of water with a solid oxide, or ceramic, electrolyte to produce oxygen and hydrogen gas. [53] SOECs can also be used to do electrolysis of CO 2 to produce CO and oxygen [54] or even co-electrolysis of water and CO 2 to produce syngas ...
Particle agglomeration refers to the formation of assemblages in a suspension and represents a mechanism leading to the functional destabilization of colloidal systems. During this process, particles dispersed in the liquid phase stick to each other , and spontaneously form irregular particle assemblages, flocs, or agglomerates.
ρ is the sample particle density, kg·m −3 ε is the volume porosity of the bed (dimensionless) δP is the pressure drop across the bed, Pa l is the cylinder length, m η is the air dynamic viscosity, Pa·s Q is the flowrate, m 3 ·s −1. It can be seen that the specific surface is proportional to the square root of the ratio of pressure to ...
Particulates or atmospheric particulate matter (see below for other names) are microscopic particles of solid or liquid matter suspended in the air.The term aerosol refers to the particulate/air mixture, as opposed to the particulate matter alone, [1] though it is sometimes defined as a subset of aerosol terminology. [2]
Rheology (/ r iː ˈ ɒ l ə dʒ i /; from Greek ῥέω (rhéō) 'flow' and -λoγία (-logia) 'study of') is the study of the flow of matter, primarily in a fluid (liquid or gas) state but also as "soft solids" or solids under conditions in which they respond with plastic flow rather than deforming elastically in response to an applied force.
When particle deposition is efficient, it proceeds almost exclusively in a system under flow. In such conditions, the hydrodynamic flow will transport the particles close to the surface. Once a particle is situated close to the surface, it will attach spontaneously, when the particle-surface interactions are attractive.
