Applieation of Swirling fluidized bed in Converting Bio oil to Gasoline

Swirling fluidized bed is proposed to be the reactor in the process of changing the bio-oil
into gasoline. Hydrodexoygenation is the main process in changing the bio-oil into
gasoline. It is the reaction that happens inside the reactor (swirling fluidized bed). During
ithe reaction inside the reactor, large amount hydrogen gas is needed. This is due to the
reaction require long residence time in the reactor. The excessive hydrogen gas must
'constantly supply to the reactor in order for the bio-oil to react with it. This will result
many unreacted hydrogen gas coming out from the reactor. A hydrogen recycle system is
developed conceptually to recycle back the hydrogen gas to the reactor. The process flow
diagram and the plant flow sheet are determined and parts of the system are identified
from the plant flow sheet and process flow diagram. There is 4 parts in the system which
is the blower, heater, make-up hydrogen supply system and the piping system. The
dimensiouing of the parts will be further discussed in this report.
