Flash Reactor and Refiner Simulation

Flash Reactor and Refiner Simulation

Based on the multiphase flow model presented in a previous post, the main research topic for TU Graz is to develop a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model that can accurately describe the combustion of sewage sludge powder in the Flash Reactor. The model includes...

FlashPhos General Assembly Meeting in Spoleto

From May 10-11, 2023, the FlashPhos General Assembly Meeting took place, gathering all project partners in Spoleto, Italy. The host of the meeting was project partner Italmatch Chemicals, one of the most experienced companies worldwide in P4 handling and manufacturing...
Multiphase Flow Model

Multiphase Flow Model

Drying the sewage sludge and reducing its size into small particles is the first step in the FlashPhos process. For the optimal operation of the pilot plant Flash Reactor, the basicity of the particulate fuel will be adjusted beforehand. During the experiments at...
Virtual FlashPhos Plant

Virtual FlashPhos Plant

What is a virtual plant? A virtual plant or digital twin is a fully functional digital clone of a real-world process. For the FlashPhos process, a model was built based on the mass and energy balance supplemented with thermodynamic data which can predict how the...
Conceptual Engineering of the FlashPhos Process

Conceptual Engineering of the FlashPhos Process

In plant engineering, Conceptual Engineering is the first of three stages, in which the basic components, mass, and energy flows necessary to make a process run are determined. In this blog, we want to give you an overview of our conceptual engineering activities,...
