More than 90% of the world’s energy consumption is produced by combustion. It is expected that combustion will still be a prevailing method for energy production in the coming decades. On the other hand, having in mind that combustion is by far the biggest source of pollution, the goal of subject is to enable better understanding of the topic, train and qualify students to become competent experts in this field of international key importance.
After successful finishing the course students should be able to: - recognize and use modern technologies of the combustion processes, - use techniques for reduction of emission of harmful and polluting combustion products, - apply the acquired knowledge in combustion in the industry and energy sectors, - work in research and development organizations.
Combustion basics.Conservation of mass and enery. Specific topics on combustion of different fuels. Combustion facilities and their performance. Biofules. Co-combustion. Emissions of polluting and harmful contaminants. Role of СО2. Technics to reduce emission of NOx. Technics to reduce emission of SO2. Technics to reduce emission of CO and HC. Technics to reduce emission of particulates. Technics to reduce emission of heavy metals Technics to reduce emission of СО2. СО2 trading. New technologies. Fuel cells. Hydrogen.
Practical tuition includes analysis and examples of conservation of mass and enery laws regardding combustion and emissions. Examples of technics to reduce emissions of NOx and SO2 will be treated in particular. Measurements of flue gas emission components will be performed in a purpose built test stand. The effect of influencing parameters on emission performance of a purposely built burner will be experimentally performed and analyzed. A student will theoretically and numerically solve a problem of mass and energy balance of one of pollution reduction techniques.
