The fast pyrolysis characteristics of lignocellulosic biomass are investigated for a bubbling fluidized bed reactor by means of computational fluid dynamics (CFD). To simulate multiphase reacting flows for gases and solids, an Eulerian-Eulerian approach is applied. Attention is paid for the primary and secondary reactions affected by gas-solid flow field. From the result, it is scrutinized that fast pyrolysis reaction is promoted by chaotic bubbling motion of the multiphase flow enhancing the mixing of solid particles. In particular, vortical flow motions around gas bubbles play an important role for solid mixing and consequent fast pyrolysis reaction. Discussion is made for the time-averaged pyrolysis reaction rates together with time-averaged flow quantities which show peculiar characteristics according to local transverse location in a bubbling fluidized bed reactor.

The bio-oil produced from the fast pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass contains a high amount of oxygenates, causing variation in the properties of bio-oil, such as instability, high acidity, and low heating value, reducing the quality of the bio-oil. Consequently, an upgrading process should be recommended ensuring that these bio-oils are widely used as fuel sources. Catalytic fast pyrolysis has attracted a great deal of attention as a promising method for producing upgraded bio-oil from biomass feedstock. In this study, the fast pyrolysis of tulip tree was performed in a bubbling fluidized-bed reactor under different reaction temperatures, with and without catalysts, to investigate the effects of pyrolysis temperature and catalysts on product yield and bio-oil quality. The system used silica sand, ferric oxides (Fe₂O₃ and Fe₃O₄), and H-ZSM-5 as the fluidized-bed material and nitrogen as the fluidizing medium. The liquid yield reached the highest value of 49.96 wt% at 450 ℃, using Fe₂O₃ catalyst, compared to 48.45 wt% for H-ZSM-5, 47.57 wt% for Fe₃O₄ and 49.03 wt% with sand. Catalysts rejected oxygen mostly as water and produced a lower amount of CO and CO₂, but a higher amount of H₂ and hydrocarbon gases. The catalytic fast pyrolysis showed a high ratio of H₂/CO than sand as a bed material.

유동층 열분해로에서 상수리나무의 급속열분해를 수행하고 생성된 바이오오일의 물리화학적 특성을 GC/MS를 이용하여 분석하였다. 유동층 열분해로에서 얻어진 상수리나무와 낙엽송의 바이오오일 수율은 각각 $350^{\circ}C,\;400^{\circ}C$에서 최대치를 보였으며 이는 두 수종간의 셀룰로오스 함량차이에 기인하는 것으로 추정된다. 최적온도 이상에서는 반응온도가 증가할수록 프리보드에서의 2차 열분해에 의하여 촤와 오일의 수율이 감소하였고 가스상 성분과 수분의 함량이 증가하였다. 유등층 열분해로에서 시료의 투입량은 생성물의 수율과 조성에는 큰 영향을 주지 않았으며 이는 충분한 혼합이 이루어지기 때문으로 판단되었다.

A laboratory scale fluidized bed reactor was developed to treat the combustion characteristics of some fuels (wood, paper sludge, refuse derived fuel). The aims were to introduce the means of experiment and interpretation of the results and finally determine the particle characteristics on the pyrolysis and combustion process of the fuel. A single particle combustion process in the fluidized bed was closely observed. Understanding experimental facility characteristics and determining parameters were also carried out. The fuel combustion processes were observed by carbon conversion rate, recovery and mean carbon conversion time. They were estimated with the CO, $CO_2$ gas concentration monitored at the exit of the combustor. Fuel drying and pyrolysis process were governed by temperature distribution in the fuel particle. There was a significant overlap of the drying and devolatilization. However, transition process from devolatilization to char combustion seemed to be determined by mechanical solidity of the fuel particle after devolatilization process.

The development of renewable energy is currently strongly required to address environmental problems such as global warming. In particular, biomass is highlighted due to its advantages. When using biomass as an energy source, the conversion process is essential. Fast pyrolysis, which is a thermochemical conversion method, is a known method of producing bio-oil. Therefore, various studies were conducted with fast pyrolysis. Most studies were conducted under a lab-scale process. Hence, scaling up is required for commercialization. However, it is difficult to find studies that address the process analysis, even though this is essential for developing a scaled-up plant. Hence, the present study carries out the process analysis of biomass pyrolysis. The fast pyrolysis system includes a biomass feeder, fast pyrolyzer, cyclone, condenser, and electrostatic precipitator (ESP). A two-stage, semi-global reaction mechanism was applied to simulate the fast pyrolysis reaction and a circulating fluidized bed reactor was selected as the fast pyrolyzer. All the equipment in the process was modeled based on heat and mass balance equations. In this study, process analysis was conducted with various reaction temperatures and residence times. The two-stage, semi-global reaction mechanism for circulating fluidized-bed reactor can be applied to simulate a scaled-up plant.

Medium-density fiberboard의 최적 열분해 조건을 찾기 위해 유동층 반응기를 이용하여 다양한 실험조건에서 급속열분해 실험을 수행하였다. 열분해 온도를 $425^{\circ}C$와 $575^{\circ}C$ 사이에서 변화시켰을 때, $525^{\circ}C$에서 최대 바이오오일 수율 52 wt%를 얻을 수 있었다. 열분해 온도가 높을수록 생성되는 바이오오일의 품질이 좋은 것으로 나타났다. 높은 온도에서 열분해 반응을 수행할 경우, 상당한 양의 oxygenates 및 acids 물질들이 분해되고, 대신 aromatics와 phenolics 같은 고부가가치 물질들이 생성되었다. 기체상 생성물의 대부분은 CO와 $CO_2$였다. 열분해 온도가 높을수록 CO와 $C_1-C_4$ 탄화수소 생성량이 많았다.

본 연구는 0.076 m 지름과 0.8 m 높이를 가지는 기포유동층 열분해로를 이용하여 국내에서 풍부한 낙엽송 톱밥의 급속 열분해 특성을 고찰한 것이다. 유동층 열분해로의 운전 조건인 반응온도($350-550^{\circ}C$), 유동화 속도비($U_o/U_{mf} $: 2.0-6.0), 원료 주입 속도(2.2-7.0 g/min)에 따른 열분해 수율과 바이오 오일의 조성 변화를 고찰하였다. 바이오 오일에 포함된 화학 성분들의 수는 반응 온도 증가에 따른 2차 열분해로 인하여 반응 온도가 증가함에 따라서 감소하였다. 유동화 속도비와 원료 주입 속도가 유동층 열분해에 미치는 영향은 반응 온도의 영향보다 작아 열분해 온도가 가장 중요한 인자임을 확인하였다.

유동형 급속열분해기((fluidized bed type fast pyrolyzer, 용량 300g/h)를 이용하여 너도밤나무와 침엽수 흔합재(독일가문비나무/전나무, 50:50)로부터 바이오오일을 생산하였다. 목질바이오매스의 열분해는 약 $470{\pm}5^{\circ}C$에서 1-2초 간 진행되었다. 목질바이오매스의 열분해 생성물의 조성을 살펴보면, 너도밤나무는 바이오오일이 약 60%, 탄이 약 9% 피리 고 가스가 31% 가량 생산되었으며, 침엽수 혼합재는 49%의 바이오오일, 9%의 탄, 그리고 42% 가량의 가스가 생성되었다. 두 종류의 목질바이오매스에서 생산된 바이오오일에는 약 17-22% 가량의 수분이 포함되어 있었으며, 비중은 약 1.2kg/L 이었다. 바이오오일의 원소 조성은 탄소가 45%, 산소가 47% 수소가 7%, 그리 고 질소가 1% 로서 일반적 인 목질바이오매스와 큰 차이는 없는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 화석자원에서 생산되는 오일류와 비교하여 산소함량은 매우 높았으나 황은 전혀 포함하고 있지 않았다. 바이오오일의 GC분석 결과 총 90여종의 고리형, 또는 비고리형 저분자량 화합물이 검출되었으며 이들의 함량은 바이오오일 전건중량의 31-33% 정도로 측정되었다.

Biomass had been attracted public attention as eco-friendly resource which not increases the greenhouse gas like carbon dioxide. In this study, it had been collected pyrolytic products such as bio-oil, char and pyrolytic gas from various biomass in a fluidized bed reactor which is one of the fast pyrolysis processes. To understand the characteristics of biomass pyrolysis, the variation of products yield and chemical composition was determined with various operating parameters like temperature, gas velocity($U_{0}/U_{mf}$) and bed height(L/D). In the optimum operating conditions, gas yield and water content was the lowest and concentration of guaiacols and syringols were the highest. The maximum yields of bio-oil was from 55% to 58% at $400^{\circ}C$.
