Abstract: | Thousands of ppmv of hydrogen sulfide included in coal gas should be reduced to less than a hundred ppmv in the case of IGCC to prevent a gas turbine from being corroded, and few ppmv to prevent the performance of electrodes from declining in the case of MCFC. In the present paper a laboratory scale AEBG (Agitation Fluidized Bed Granulator) is made and improved. The sorbent for the removal of hydrogen sulfide is produced using an agitation fluidized bed granulator (ZnO 1.5 mole+TiO2 l.0mole+bentonite 5.0 wt%). The techniques for fluidizing fine particles, classified in Geldart C group, in a fluidized bed are developed by installing an agitator blade in a fluidized bed granulator. The fine particles are fluidized and granulated successfully by using the techniques. Statistical, spectral and chaos analyses with granulated sorbent (100-300 Μm) are performed to investigate the hydrodynamics of granulates in a fluidized bed. The average absolute deviation, power spectral density functions, phase space trajectories, and Kolmogorov entropy obtained from pressure fluctuation are plotted as a function of fluidizing velocity. It is shown that the Kolmogorov entropy implying the rate of generation of information can be applied to the control of fluidization regimes. |
