Shedding light on the governing mechanisms for insufficient CO and H2 burnout in the presence of potassium, chlorine and sulfur
Based on the experiences of insufficient burnout in industrial fluidized bed furnaces despite adequate mixing and availability of oxidizer, the influence of potassium on CO and H2 oxidation in combustion environments was investigated. The combustion environments were provided by a laminar flame burner in a range relevant to industrial furnaces, i.e. 845 °C to 1275 °C and excess air ratios ranging
