It describes a new experimental approach to combustion evaluation, involving fundamental, bench-scale and commercial-scale studies. The studies presented were conducted on two representative biomass energy crops: a woody biomass poplar (Populus sp. or poplar) and an herbaceous biomass brassica (Brassica carinata or brassica). Moreover, agricultural residues of Manihot esculenta or cassava were also analyzed. The main accomplishments of this work are threefold. Firstly, it offers an extensive characterization of the above-mentioned fuels, their ash chemistry and their emissions of both solid particles and gaseous compounds that form at typical grate combustion conditions. Secondly, it presents an in-depth analysis of ash fractionation processes for major ash species. Thirdly, it describes the role of some critical and volatile key elements (K, Cl, S and P) in grate-fired combustion systems and elucidates the main differences in the ash chemistry during combustion of Si-rich and P-rich fuels. All in all, this work provides novel insights on the basic and fundamental mechanisms of biomass grate combustion with a special focus on ash transformation, and highlights important issues and recommendations that need to be considered for an appropriate conversion of ash-rich fuels and for the development of future technology in the context of both small- and medium-scale biomass-based heat and power production.Springer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,2190-5053Renewable energy resourcesEnginesMachineryChemical engineeringEnergy consumptionRenewable and Green Energyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/111000Engine Technologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T17048Industrial Chemistry/Chemical Engineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C27000Energy Efficiencyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/118000Renewable energy resources.Engines.Machinery.Chemical engineering.Energy consumption.Renewable and Green Energy.Engine Technology.Industrial Chemistry/Chemical Engineering.Energy Efficiency.333.794Díaz-Ramírez Maryori Cauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut991415MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910299608703321Grate-Fired Energy Crop Conversion2268921UNINA04032nam 2200721 a 450 991096458720332120251116233737.097866111541270-19-153651-21-281-15412-1(CKB)2560000000295090(EBL)415669(OCoLC)437094036(SSID)ssj0000225208(PQKBManifestationID)11185970(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000225208(PQKBWorkID)10229994(PQKB)11763352(StDuBDS)EDZ0000022253(MiAaPQ)EBC415669(Au-PeEL)EBL415669(CaPaEBR)ebr10190487(CaONFJC)MIL115412(MiAaPQ)EBC7034550(Au-PeEL)EBL7034550(OCoLC)1160394009(FINmELB)ELB168623(OCoLC)1294196607(EXLCZ)99256000000029509020070927d2007 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrPower and identity in the Middle Ages essays in memory of Rees Davies /edited by Huw Pryce and John WattsOxford ;New York Oxford University Press20071 online resource (296 p.)Description based upon print version of record.0-19-928546-2 0-19-170033-9 Includes bibliographical references and index.Includes a bibliography of published writings of Rees Davies (p.
