Analysis of Sugar Beet Pulp by X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy
Surface Science Spectra, 2004Co-Authors: Guilin Jiang, Ghaleb A. Husseini, Larry Lin Baxter, Matthew R. LinfordAbstract:Determining the chemical structure and composition of biomass fuels using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) can provide fundamental knowledge of their structures that is useful in understanding and predicting their combustion behavior. Sugar beet pulp is an example of an agricultural residue (byproduct of food and feed production) of potential interest for biomass combustion. The XPS spectra of sugar beet pulp provide both its elemental composition and indications of its bonding. Traditional fuel analyses of this fuel are also provided. These include: Ultimate Analysis — the elemental composition of the overall fuel (C, H, N, S, and O); chlorine Analysis — reported here as part of the Ultimate Analysis but formally a separate procedure; proximate Analysis — the proximate composition of the fuel (moisture, fixed carbon, volatiles, and ash); heating value — the specific heat of combustion. These data are summarized with the XPS spectra.

A technique proximate and Ultimate Analysis of solid fuels and coal tar
Journal of Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry, 2015Co-Authors: Alexander Kozlov, Denis Svishchev, Igor Donskoy, Vitaly Shamansky, Alexander RyzhkovAbstract:The paper presents a technique for proximate and Ultimate analyses of solid fuels and coal tars by integrating the simultaneous thermal Analysis and mass spectrometry. The technique for the Ultimate Analysis is based on the Analysis of components of the gas phase that is formed during combustion of the studied samples in oxygen. In the Analysis of coal tars, the inert filler is used for their uniform evaporation and oxidation. The developed technique was tested on the black coal sample. The obtained results are consistent with the standard technique for Ultimate Analysis based on ASTM 3172-76. The paper shows a good agreement of the results of Analysis by these two techniques. The paper also illustrates the applicability of the developed technique to studies on a wide range of solid fuels.

spanish biofuels heating value estimation part i Ultimate Analysis data
Fuel, 2014Co-Authors: Roberto Garcia, Consuelo Pizarro, Antonio Gutierrez Lavin, Julio L BuenoAbstract:Abstract Due to the great variety of existing potential biomass fuels, measuring their heating value accurately is a previous design requirement, since this is one of the most important parameters regarding the evaluation of competitive energy generation from biomass combustion. In this work, the higher heating value (HHV) of 100 different biomass samples was experimentally determined. The list of biofuels tested includes different kinds of solid densified commercial fuels, forest and agricultural industry residues, woody and herbaceous residues, energetic crops and cereals. Ultimate Analysis-based equations were used to develop a correlation between data, in order to quantify the detected dependence of HHV on mainly carbon and oxygen content. A comparative study was carried out between our results and those predicted from theoretical equations found in the bibliography. The wide experimental database enables us to propose new predictive correlations, with departures from experimental values below 6% in all cases, as a contribution to the characterization and normalization of solid biofuels.
