β¦ Synopsis
A mathematical model is developed to evaluate the performance of sulfur retention by limestone in circulating fluidized beds. The model considers particle movement and attrition, calcination and initial pore size distribution, pore plugging and cyclone performance. Percolation scaling theory is used to determine the accessible reaction surface area of the sorbent particles. The model predictions are in good agreement with the experimental data.

To optimise the circulating fluidized bed coal combustion (CFBC) with sorbent addition and make predictions about the eombustor behaviour in a broad range of operating conditions it is necessary to make a mathematical model of the process. This model was developed integrating hydrodynamic and sulpha
## Abstract A reactor model is presented to calculate the sulfur retention and SO~2~ emission of a fluidizedβbed coal combustor with absorption of SO~2~ by limestone or dolomite. It is based on the twoβphase theory of fluidization and a two parameter simplified rate expression for the sulfation rea
A mathematical model to describe a circulating fluidized-bed combustor is presented. A modified two-phase model which was used in the bubbling fluidized-bed combustor is considered to simulate the dense zone of the bottom section. For the upper section of the bed the momentum and energy-balance equa
Their performance is tested against experimental data for different operating conditions. The importance of the different assumptions is analyzed and discussed. For the conditions analyzed in the present article the model of Rajah and Wen more closely follows the experimental trends. However, some d
