The influence of catalysts on the combustion of petroleum coke in the stationary fluidized bed mode

Abstract

It is known that petroleum coke, a product of deep processing of oil, can be used as fuel in power boilers. The method of petroleum coke burning in a fluidized bed is the most optimal to complete its combustion. To improve the combustion characteristics of this fuel, we studied the influence of catalysts on the petroleum coke burning in the simulation mode of a stationary fluidized bed. The laboratory setup is described. The results of the experiments are given.
