CFB-14 Conference Themes

The  CFB-14 Conference will continue in the tradition of this conference series dating from 1985, with its focus on the fundamental research and applications of circulating fluidized bed technology. It will also incorporate other novel fluidized bed reactor technologies, especially those related to green processes, clean and renewable energy such as hydrogen and bio-fuels, energy storage and conversion, and carbon capture and utilization such as chemical looping combustion/gasification. In addition to studies on fundamental and applied aspects of fluidized beds and fluidization systems, CFB-14 will also emphasize fluidized bed technologies targeting energy and environmental issues.

  Topics include, but are not limited to:

▪ A-Dynamics, heat and mass transfer of gas-solid flow

▪ B-Modeling and simulation

▪ C-Measurements and instrumentation

▪ D-Catalytic reaction and novel reaction process

▪ E-Combustion, pyrolysis and gasification

▪ F-Looping and energy storage processes

▪ G-Fine particle and nano-particle systems

▪ H-Industrial experience and application

The papers submitted should not be published or considered for publishing elsewhere. The excellent papers would be selected for publication in international journals as a special issue of Powder technology, Advanced Powder Technology, Energies, and Applied Thermal Engineering.
