  Abstract Text

  The topic of this paper is the development of technology for incineration of high-density liquid fuels i.e. heavy liquid fuel-HLF, in an environmentally friendly way. These fuels include sediments from crude oil tanks and heavy products of fractional distillation of commercial liquid fuel, and also used liquids and emulsions from chemical, petrochemical and metallurgical industries, which can combust on their own or with the addition of classic (conventional) fuels. These matters cause, as a rule, serious problems in operation in industry, owing to difficult fuel handling, the decreasing capacity of tanks in which they are stored, and due to the fact that these fuels contain more harmful components than commercial fuels, which links their storage to great environmental problems. Non-uniform composition, high contents of impurities (water, mineral matter), and especially high density and viscosity, makes HLF very difficult to be incinerated in common liquid fuel combustion facilities (furnaces, boilers). The solution is thermal disintegration of HLF in the fluidized bed, which enables matters of quite different origin and non-uniform composition to be incinerated, with decreasing the emission of pollutants and a high thermal inertia of the facility. In this paper, a description is given of the aparatus and the experimental procedure, as well as a detailed review of experimental results. « hide
