CFB-11 will be held in Beijing, China, in May 2014. The conference themes have been expanded in the past ten conferences to include fluidized bed studies beyond traditionally focused area, the circulating fluidized beds. The official title of the conference has been renamed to International Conference on Fluidized Bed Technology to reflect this change.
CFB-11 addresses both fundamental and applied aspects of circulating fluidized beds and fluidized bed systems, which covers but is not limited to the themes of, e.g.,
- Hydrodynamics of gas-solid flow
- Computational fluid dynamics
- Modeling and computation
- Heat and mass transfer
- Fine particle and nano-particle systems
- Process design and scale-up
- Measurement and instrumentation
- Fluid catalytic cracking and other catalytic processes
- Combustion, pyrolysis and gasification
- Chemical looping processes
- Mineral processing
All papers will be peer reviewed by colleagues in this field and those accepted will be included in the final proceedings.
