TL;DR: In this paper, the eulerian multiphase model has been used for fluidized bed and the effect of numerical influence of bed superheater tubes has also been discussed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the shape of various hard and soft solid particles has been analyzed by using ImageJ simulation tool, which runs digital interpretations by reading the pixel and grey value information present in a particular SEM micrograph.

TL;DR: In this paper, biogas was produced by anaerobic degradation of kitchen waste, and then it was subsequently injected in a dual fuel compression ignition (CI) engine, which was subsequently used for power generation.

Abstract: The disposal of bottom ash in the thermal power plant is a challenging task. The objective of the present study was to investigate the leaching characteristics of the bottom ash disposed in ash pond of thermal power plants. The studies were conducted with bottom ashes from ash disposal system. A series of leaching test have been performed with different liquid to solid ratio (L/S). The (L/S) varies from 20:1 to 60:1. It is observed that the elements of Mn, Mg, Cr, Zn, Ni, and Cu are most abundant elements while Pb, Mo, Fe and Co are the least abundant elements. It is also observed that the leaching characteristics of the bottom ash are affected by the pH of extraction solution and liquid to solid (L/S) ratio.

TL;DR: The high-rank coal reserves are limited and getting depleted at an escalating rate to meet the demands of growing population as mentioned in this paper, and this concern has compelled the scientific community to use the young coal reserves at an increasing rate.
