DOI: 10.1016/j.joei.2020.07.015
Abstract: Abstract Biomass with high concentration of alkali/alkaline and silica components can lead to slagging/fouling, and sintering of the ash deposits, causing corrosion and erosion of the boilers. There are several methods to predict bed agglomeration… read more here.
