CFD-based Biomass Fast Pyrolysis Simulations in a Gas- Solid Vortex Reactor demonstrating Process Intensification

Gas-Solid Vortex Reactors (GSVRs) are a new generation of rotating fluidized beds. The solids beds are closely packed. Gas-solid contact improves, resulting in better heat and mass transfer. It makes GSVRs appropriate for thermally intensive reactions like biomass fast pyrolysis. In this work, resul...
