High-Temperature Corrosion of Calcium Hexaaluminate with Biomass Slag

The energy transition from the incineration of fossil fuels to biomass confront refractory linings to severe corrosion issues, due to the high content of alkalis as well as the wide...

Refractories in the Global Incineration Industry

One of the most important and very possibly the most urgent issue facing society today, is the preservation of the environment to maintain the quality of all forms of life...

Inhibiting the Carbon Deposition from the Reverse Boudouard Reaction in Refractories Submitted to CO–H2 Atmosphere

The catalytic decomposition of carbon monoxide via the reverse Boudouard reaction in the presence of a mixture of CO–H2 gas produces a solid sp2 carbon deposit, which has deleterious effects...

Subsidy-Free Electricity for Industrial Companies

bejulo/DE heralds the “next era“ of power generation for medium and large scale industrial com­panies and produces energy from photovoltaic power plants that is cost­effective in the long term.

Development of Soderberg Carbon Electrodes Bonded with a Carbon Nanofibre Reinforced Coal-Tar Pitch

The operation of Electric Arc Furnaces (EAF) relies on the use of differ-ent types of carbon electrodes. Most of them are subjected to thermal treatments before use. However, Soderberg electrodes...

Ceramic Heat Pipes for High Temperature Application

High temperature heat pipes with a ceramic container consisting out of sintered silicon carbide (SSiC) and with zinc as working fluid are investigated.

Hot Corrosion Resistance of Aluminosilicate Refractories – Comparative Tests in the Secondary Combustion Chamber of a Hazardous Waste Incinerator

This paper presents the alkali and sulphur vapour corrosion resistance of aluminosilicate refractories under industrial conditions. Aluminosilicate refractory samples with Al2O3 contents ranging 42–90 mass‑% were exposed for 8 months...

Rotary Kilns for Hazardous Waste Incineration: Refractory Wear Mechanism and Lifetime Prolongation

The rotary kiln is the most common system to incinerate hazardous waste. However, the many-sided kiln conditions make it difficult to find appropriate refractory materials, able to endure for long...
