Zusammenfassung: | Combustion of rice husks with and without coal in the presence of a pilot flame in a modified fluidized bed was investigated in the present study. The process was employed to produce raw silica from rice husks by burning off other organic matters. The chemical and physical properties of both the top and the bottom products from the rice husk combustion were found to be strongly influenced by two major factors: the feed rate and the feed composition. It has also been found that coal fed along with rice husks to the combustion process permits easy control of the properties of both solid products and significantly reduces the agglomerating phenomena that occur often in the process. The temperature distribution of the fluidized bed, which reflects the bed operating characteristics, was measured and observed to depend on the frequency of pulsed solid feed. |
