Original Abstract

The objective of the present contribution is to summarise the main parameters of a new-generation experimental grate combustion reactor. The conclusions are based on a review of the main properties and construction details of existing grate combustion reactors. Grate combustion reactors are used for the collection of data necessary for detailed modelling of grate combustion of solid biomass fuels, solid municipal waste, wood or coal. Due to the complexity of the grate combustion process its mathematical models and simulation software tools must be developed and verified using experimental data. This work highlights required properties of laboratory reactors, discusses design and operational issues and concludes by drawing several key design recommendations.
