The objective of this research project, involving Arcelor Research, MEFOS, BFI, Aceralia, Saarstahl AG and Sidenor is to develop advanced methods and systems for online control of gas-stirred ladle treatment in order to improve refining reactions, removal of inclusions and homogenisation during...

The Project objective is the development of advanced modelling tools required for implementing Calcium Looping (CaL) at commercial scale. In this regard the research focused on studying the optimization of limestone utilization, developing models and investigating the process feasibility. Thus,...

Molasses is a first-generation bioethanol feedstock that is a byproduct of sugar production. Molasses is a viscous fluid; consequently, when it serves as a substrate, it needs to be dissolved in water to obtain the appropriate conditions for the yeast. Therefore, the mixing process of molasses...

All modern hydro-kinetic turbines are being designed based on a lift, using airfoils, which should have a significant lift to drag ratio to achieve maximum efficiency.SG604X family airfoil has significant lift-to-drag ratio under an operating range of Re from 105-106, which also come under our...

When preserving perishable goods, maintaining a constant temperature over the cold supply chain is essential. Therefore, refrigerated vehicles are an important part of the cold supply chain system. However, many traditional refrigerated cargo systems are not designed to support the homogeneity...

Supersonic Ejector (SE) is a thermally-driven fluidic compressor that replaces the electro-mechanical compressor in Reverse-Rankine refrigeration/heat pump cycles. These widely used thermal cycles account for billions of kWh of electric energy and produce hundreds of millions of metric tons of...

The present work seeks to review the current biomass combustion models in use for industrial applications. Combustion efficiency of coal fired boilers is a major concern for engineers and policy makers especially with the effect emissions have on the climate. Biomass, a renewable fuel, offers an...
