Abstract
The catalytic combustion of gasified biomasses over Mn-substituted hex aaluminates with high thermal stability is addressed. Combustion activ ity tests of the main fuel components, i.e. CO, H-2, C2H4 and CH4, hav e been performed, and the effects of H2O and CO2 on the fuel combustio n have been investigated. The reactivity of NH3 in the catalytic combu stion has also been studied in view of its potential source of undesir ed fuel-NOx. Lab-scale data have been preliminarily scaled up through mathematical modeling. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reser ved.
