Abstract
AbstractThe effects of three reaction temperatues, 180, 200 and 220°C, on the partial wet oxidation of peat were investigated. A stirred reactor with a five litre working volume and continuous feed of peat slurry and air was used for the experiments. The effluent was separated into liquid and solid fractions and analyzed to quantify the effects of temperature. The carbon content and heating value of the recovered solids increased with temperature but yields were lower. The composition of the wastewater was only slightly dependent on the reaction temperature, and in all cases contained high concentrations of organics.
