Exploring Fluidized Bed Technology for Biocarbon Production with Alkali/Phosphorus Mitigation.

Short Introductive summary

This study investigated the influence of various operating parameters, such as temperature, residence time, and particle size, on producing high-quality biocarbon, especially focusing on the release of K, Na, and P from low-cost biomass. Laboratory-scale fluidized bed experiments were conducted to determine the optimal operating conditions and identify the potential effects of biomass-bed material interactions to minimize the presence of these inorganic elements in the resulting biocarbon. The produced biocarbon was further characterized by proximate, ultimate, and ICP-OES analyses.

Presenter's biography

I was born in Cali, Colombia, and earned my bachelor's and master's degrees in Chemical Engineering from Universidad del Valle. During my studies, I researched Thermochemical Processes, which allowed me to pursue a PhD in related topics in Northern Sweden.
