“…The material of the computational domain was reacting mixture of all chemical compounds involved in reactions described in (2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9), and inert gas -nitrogen Heat transfer has been described with convection mechanisms. On this early stage of modeling, radiation model and heat transfer through the external walls was not included.…”

Abstract. Waste material from the meat industry can be taken into account as a biofuel. Studies confirm, that calorific value is higher and ash content is lower comparing to some conventional fuels. EU directives regulate details of thermal disposal of the waste material from the meat industry -especially in range of the process temperature and time of the particle presence in area of the combustion zone. The paper describes design of the rotating drum grate stove, dedicated to thermal disposal of the meat wastes as well as solid biomass (pellet, small bricket, wood chips) combustion. Device has been developed in frames of cooperation between AGH University of Science and Technology (Krakow, Poland) and producer focused on technologies of energy utilization of biomass in distributed generation. Results of measurements of selected operational parameters performed during startup of the furnace have been presented and discussed. Furthermore, numerical model of the combustion process has been developed to complement experimental results in range of the temperature and oxygen distribution in the area of the combustion chamber. ANSYS CFX solver has been applied to perform simulations including rotational domain related with specifics of operation of the device. Results of numerical modelling and experimental studies have been summarized and compared.

“…During rotation material is combusted, but also crumbled, warmed, dried and pyrolised. In case of fats combustion, temperature of the process in regions near to the stove walls can be higher than 1000°C [9]. Due to the high intensity of pyrolysis it is necessary to apply appropriate air staging system.…”

“…A number of feedstocks such as oil palm waste [46], meat and bone waste [47], wood sawdust [48], plastic residue [49], rich husk [50], pellets [51], etc., can be gasified to produce hydrogen as a cleaner energy source. A maximum amount of hydrogen would be obtained if the gasification process were subjected to the use of catalysts and therefore, Ni-based catalysts have been investigated with regard to reducing the tar content as well as increasing the hydrogen production [52].…”

“…Nowadays, MBM is burned in cement kilns [3] or deposited in landfills [4,5], although, MBM could be converted in thermochemical processes such as pyrolysis, which would be safe and environmentally friendly. The pyrolysis of MBM has been studied in fixed bed [5,6] and thermobalance reactors [4,[7][8][9][10][11][12].…”
