The Barracuda Virtual Reactor software can model different types of industrial gasifiers, including fluidized-bed, transport, and entrained-flow gasifiers that use coal, biomass, or multi-fuel. It allows users to model fluidization characteristics, thermal profiles, chemical reactions, particle size changes, and syngas composition and yield. Using the software helps optimize gasifier design and operation to reduce risks and problems and increase reliability when scaling up to commercial size.

Barracuda Virtual Reactor Software for Industrial Gasifiers
TM
Model all styles of Gasifiers: Coal - Biomass - Multi-fuel
Fluidized-Bed Transport Entrained-Flow
Model how your Gasifier will operate
Ø Fluidization characteristics Ø Thermal profiles (hot/cold spots, axial/radial profiles) Ø Chemical reactions (outlet composition, local/global) Ø Particle size changes (shrinking or swelling) Ø Syngas composition and yield
Optimize Gasifier design and operation,
reduce the risk of problems and increase reliability Ø Scale-up to a commercial size operating unit Ø Ensure proper mixing of gases and particles Ø Design spargers, feeds, heaters, cyclones, diplegs Ø Minimize ‘fines’ blowover and particle segregation Ø Reduce erosion / extend lifecycle Ø Maximize conversion and reduce emissions
