Active Control of Biomass Fluidized Bed Combustion Environments

Abstract

In the present work, a scheme for industrial active control of a biomass fluidized bed combustor - heater system is proposed. modeled and simulated. It presents the instrumentation and control of a biomass fluidized bed combustor - heater system. Different control architectures are considered, based on overall fluidization and combustion control dynamics rather than control theory alone. Classical multivariable control based on modem instrumentation is applied on the fluidized bed combustion reactor, in close confonnity with fluidization and combustion dynamics, if an optimal result must be achieved.
