Abstract
Experimental measurements were performed of the minimum fluidization veloci ties and the terminal velocities of a bed of dolomite and its calcine. Usin g air, experiments were conducted in an 8.5 cm i.d. column with very narrow fractions of particles in a range of 0.14-0.72 mm. The formulas developed can be employed in engineering considerations and design of contacting coal or flue gas with dolomite sorbents. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rig hts reserved.
