Thermochemical conversion of fuels via pyrolysis/carbonization, cracking, gasification and combustion has to involve a number of individual reactions called attribution reactions to form an intercorrelated reaction network for any conversion process. By separating one or some attribution reactions from the others to decouple their interactions existing in the reaction network, the so-called reaction decoupling enables a better understanding of the complex thermal conversion process and further the optimization of the conditions for attribution reactions as well as the entire conversion process to realize advanced performances. The dual bed conversion and two-stage conversion are the two representative types of fuel conversion technologies developed in recent years based on reaction decoupling. Many technical advantages have been proven for such decoupling fuel conversion technologies, such as poly-generation of products, low-cost production of high-grade products, elimination of undesirable products or pollutants, easy operation and control, and so on. The treated fuels with decoupling conversion technologies mainly include solid biomass and coal, as well as liquid petroleum oil. This paper is devoted to reiteration of the reaction decoupling concept and further to reviewing the research, developments and successful applications of several decoupling fuel conversion technologies of two such types by using fluidized bed as their major reactors. |
