Abstract
A mechanistic model for agglomeration has been proposed in which the higher internal temperature of a reacting particle for a given bed temperature under certain favorable conditions will melt the inorganic ash and which in view of its high surface tension will ooze out of the particle and will merge with similar ash beads to form agglomerates. The frame work of mathematical equations describing this model are derived and have been solved for a range of operating and system variables. The experimental data generated at IGT have been discussed in detail and explained on the basis of proposed theory.
