The solid Fuels-Biomass and Coal- actually, still contribute +/- 40% to the global Primary Energy Sector and are widely used to satisfy some fundamental needs of the Man: Basic Cooking , Heating and PoweringWithin the global environment problematic in order to reduce the CO2 emissions , the course objective is to review the diversified chain of those fuels:
From their origin – resources – process – markets… to their final uses: domestic and industrial ones, with enlightening on environmental constraint challenges linked
Combustion chapter, the necessary step for the heat or power valorization is an important topic:
Basic solid fuel combustion features- updated technologies for domestic and industrial uses dealing with NOx, SOx, PM.. harmful emission reduction- thermal and power generation efficiency improvement-Carbon print reduction and the last stage with ultimate CO2 capture and storage technology…are reviewed
last chapter will cover concluding perspectives and briefly review some specific scenarios in China-India-USA-EU
