10 Process Intensification : Diameter based Segregation Biomass dp = 0.5 mm ρ = 450 kg m -3 - Density ratio of 0.9 & dp ratio of 2.5 show positive radial segregation - Streamlines near the outlet indicate likeliness of char exiting the reactor as rather than biomass Char dp = 0.2 mm ρ = 500 kg m -3 - Segregation is transient and char bed moves radially outwards as biomass reacts. - To sustain segregation and reduce char residence time in reactor, continuous biomass feeding could be implemented.

13 Concluding Remarks Lumped and advanced kinetic mechanisms implemented successfully in the CFD of GSVR. Pie-geometry suitable for running qualitative reactive simulations. 3D Simulations indicate transient radial char and biomass segregations within a range of biomass to char particle diameter ratios process intensification favorable for fast pyrolysis. Char, bio-oil yields lower than those in previous (2D) reactive simulations, indicating strong influence of end-wall effects. Future Work Reactive simulations with realistically shaped biomass particles Validation of reaction UDF with simulations in a fluidized bed. 13/73
