Abstract
Solids circulation rate and static bed height in the riser of a circulating fluidized bed (CFB) process, which consisted of a riser and two bubbling-beds, were investigated and discussed at ambient temperature and pressure. Three kinds of powder (FCC catalyst, glass bead, plastic powder) were used as bed materials. The static bed height in the riser increased with the solids circulation rate. However, it decreased with an increase of gas velocity. The effect of gas velocity diminished as the gas velocity increased. The riser static bed height could be used to estimate the solids circulation rate in reasonable accuracy. A correlation on static bed height in the riser, relating to the solids circulation rate, was proposed for the present experimental ranges.
