Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: As global energy demand increases and environmental pollution becomes more severe, biomass energy, as a renewable and low-carbon green energy source, has gained widespread attention.The conversion process of biomass energy involves complex thermodynamic and kinetic reactions, making the accurate assessment of its conversion efficiency and cost-effectiveness crucial for large-scale application.Thermodynamic analysis and kinetic models provide powerful tools for evaluating the combustion process of biomass energy.Although existing studies have made preliminary explorations into the thermodynamic and kinetic characteristics of biomass combustion, current analytical methods still have certain limitations, such as insufficient systematic analysis of different types of biomasses, and incomplete consideration of combustion reaction mechanisms and multiphase reactions.The main objective of this study is to explore the key parameters in the biomass energy conversion process through a combined approach of thermodynamic and kinetic analysis.The research content includes two aspects: first, calculating thermodynamic parameters of the biomass combustion process based on thermodynamic principles, and second, quantitatively analyzing the kinetic parameters of biomass combustion reactions using kinetic models.Through these two research aspects, this paper aims to provide more accurate evaluation tools for the efficient utilization of biomass energy and offer theoretical support for its cost-effectiveness optimization.
