Mechanical Strength Evolution Characteristics of Rice Husk Pellets During Chemical Looping Gasification

Due to the relative large volume and small specific surface area, the crushing behavior of biomass pellets in the chemical looping gasification (CLG) process has a direct influence on the devolatilization rate and carbon conversion rate. To investigate the mechanical strength evolution of rice husk pellet during CLG process, a bubbling fluidized bed reactor of controlling the gasification time was established. The coke samples gasified for 15 to 180 s were collected under different conditions such as, gasification temperature or fluidization wind speed, subsequently, their morphology and mechanical strength of samples were characterized. The results show that: the surface morphology of coke samples shows the evolution from pores to irregular cracks, under intense heat and mass transfer, the rapid release of volatiles forms a huge pressure difference between inside and outside of the rice husk pellet. The oxygen carrier penetrates into the particles from the cracks, which significantly promotes the destruction of the pellet structure. Moreover, reducing the pellet size could increase the heat transfer and devolatilization rate, but the reduction in body surface area limits the collision and wear of the shaped particles with the bed materials, and the mechanical strength is correspondingly improved.
