Structural and solid state EMF studies of phases in the CaO–K2O–P2O5 system with relevance for biomass combustion

Sandström, Malin January 2006 (has links)
Fosfaters reaktioner i energiomvandlingsprocesser är kritisk för den generella processen som helhet, för askrelaterade problem, emissioner liksom för en effektiv och hållbar användning av askan. Denna avhandling är en sammanställning och diskussion med utgångspunkt i åtta artiklar som behandlar strukturella och termodynamiska studier på faser i CaO-K2O-P2O5-systemet, vilka är av relevans inom förbränning av biomassa. Målsättningen med denna avhandling var: i) att sammanställa och granska tillgängliga strukturella och termodynamiska data i CaO-K2O-P2O5-systemet samt att identifiera avsaknad av data, ii) att fylla i dessa luckor med grundläggande termodynamiska, strukturella och fasstabilitets studier samt iii) att visa på användning samt fördelarna med dessa nya data vid praktisk tillämpning.

Faserna CaK2P2O7 and CaKPO4 tillsammans med Ca3(PO4)2, KPO3 och K4P2O7 studerades med pulverröntgendiffraktion och termiska analysmetoder för att klargöra fasmodifikationer och övergångstemperaturer.

Quantitative equilibrium calculations on systems with relevance to copper smelting and converting

Björkman, Bo January 1984 (has links)
The present thesis gives a summary of results obtained through theoretical and experimental studies of systems with relevance to copper smelting and converting. Many chemical elements are involved in the copper production pro­cesses and a detailed experimental study would be very time- consuming and expensive. A complicating fact is also the corrosivity of the liquid phases towards container material. A powerful alternative is equilibrium calculations, in which models for the liquid phases as well as reliable basic thermodynamic data are needed. In the present thesis, a generalized structure based model for liquid silicates was developed and used in assessments of the sys­tems PbO-SiO2, Fe-O-SiO2, CuO0.5-SÌO2 and Cu-Fe-O-SiO2. In the model, the non-ideal silicate melt is treated as an ideal solu­tion but containing a few complexes. The PbO-Si02 melt could be described by introducing the complexes Pb3Si207, Pb4Si4010 and Pb13Si12O37 in addition to the components PbO and Pb2Si04. The species considered in the Fe-O-SiO2 melt were FeO, FeO1.5, Fe2Si04, Fe3Si207, Fe3Si6O15 and in the CUO0.5-SiO2 melt CuO0.5 ana CU4SiO4. Trie calculated phase diagrams, the activities of me­tal oxides and the oxygen partial pressures were all in good agreement with the published data. Two of the papers in this thesis concern the determination of Gibbs free energies for Cu2S(s,l) and Ca2Fe2O5(s) through emf measurements utilizing a solid electrolyte. Activities and termi­nal solubilities in the solid solution [Fet,Ca]0 were also deter­mined. The results obtained from the quantitative equilibrium calcula­tions for conventional copper smelting and converting were used to outline the overall reactions taking place and the outcome of changes in process parameters. Comparison with observed values, however, showed that the copper and magnetite contents in slag were calculated too low. These discrepancies could be completely explained by using a non-equilibrium approach in which the con­verter was assumed to consist of several segments with concentra­tion gradients between the segments. / digitalisering@umu.se
