MARTINEZ ANGEL, Juan Daniel; PINEDA VASQUEZ, Tatiana Gissette; LOPEZ ZAPATA, Juan Pablo e BETANCUR VELEZ, Mariluz. Fluidized bed rice husk combustion experiments for the production of silica-rich ash. Rev.fac.ing.univ. Antioquia [online]. 2010, n.51, pp.97-104. ISSN 0120-6230.
Aiming to contribute with the valorization of agricultural wastes that present disposal problems and the use of renewable energy sources, was researched the rice husk combustion in atmospheric bubbling fluidized bed reactor. The methodology was to evaluate the air excess influence in the flue gases and the ash characteristics. It was determined the gases composition (CO, CO2 and NOx) and characterized the ash generated (XRD, XRF). 40% excess air promotes temperatures inside the reactor around 700oC with higher conversion efficiencies, but declining the amorphous silica potential of the ash. Contrary behavior was evidenced at 128% excess air. The flue gases showed relative variability for each operating condition. In the CO case, an average concentration of 200 ppm was found (on a dry basis of 11% O2) for air excess between 40% and 82,5%.
