After a very exciting and successful start in Beijing, the second part of the trip took Prof. Stefan Heinrich and the four SPE PhD students to the 14th International Conference on Circulating Fluidized Beds (CFB 14) in Taiyuan, China.
The conference included a total of 200 contributions from 15 nations on a range of topics from dynamics, heat and mass transfer of gas-solid flow, modeling and simulation, combustion, pyrolysis and gasification to fine particle and nano-particle systems. At this conference:
Stefan Heinrich gave an enthusiastic plenary lecture on "Challenges in Understanding, Modeling and Control of Particle Formulation by Spray Granulation", which held every ones attention in the audience Lennard Lindmüller gave an awesome keynote lecture on "Particle Movement in a Circulating Fluidized Beds vial Electrical Capacitance Volume Tomography and Particle Imaging Velocimetry". Marian Schmitt gave an exciting lecture on "Reaction Kinetics of Biogenic Fuel for Chemical Looping". Zhi Cheng Hua gave a great lecture on "JET assisted fluidized bed production of battery hetero aggregates with structural analysis" Abdullah Sadeq gave an impressive lecture on "On the Mechanical Stability of Biomass Pellets with Different Initial Densities after Fluidized Bed Pyrolysis", which was subsequently awarded the "Best Paper" by the CFB14. Congratulations on that!
Many thanks to the organizers for hosting an unforgettable conference. We gained numerous new insights and had the opportunity to contribute exciting topics.
