Multiphase Reactors for Biomass Processing and Thermochemical Conversions

Advances in Computational Fluid Dynamics Modeling for Biomass Pyrolysis: A Review

“…These parameters include the properties of the feedstock, the rate of heating, the specific geometry of the reactor, and the flow rates of gases and liquids within the system. Each of these factors can significantly influence the efficiency and effectiveness of the pyrolysis process, thereby presenting a considerable challenge in leveraging CFD to achieve an optimal reactor design [131]. The complexity arises from not only the sheer number of variables, but also their interdependencies and the impact they have on the reactor's thermal and flow dynamics.…”
