Multi-Material Particulate Solids With Discrete Chemistry

Coal & Biomass Gasification

  • Multi-media particles allow any coal composition to be accurately modeled
  • Include temperature-dependent devolatilization CH4, CO, H2O

Coal & Biomass Gasification

Polysilicon FBRs

  • Particle-level CVD chemistry for silicon deposition from silane or trichlorosilane in a fluidized bed reactor
  • Model heating and cooling requirements for the fluidized bed
  • Model direct or hydroclorination FBRsFluidized Bed Reactor

Polysilicon FBRs

FCC Catalyst

  • Discrete particle-level chemistry calculates coke burn-off from spent catalyst during regeneration, and can help reduce NOx/SOx levels with a full-scale regenerator model

FCC Catalyst

Carbon Capture & Gas Cleanup

  • Model adsorption of gases onto sorbent solids with multi-material particles and particle level chemical kinetics
  • Model full-loop CO2 capture systems
  • Optimize sorbent regeneration in sulfur cleanup systems

Carbon Capture & Gas Cleanup

We get much more out of our experiments when we compliment them with the CFD modeling, specifically CPFD Software, Barracuda.  We have a better understanding of what’s going on. It allows us to see what we can’t see experimentally.  And we get more value for our data because of it.
