Reduction efficiency prediction of CENIBRA's recovery boiler by direct minimization of gibbs free energy

The reduction efficiency is an important variable during the black liquor burning process in the Kraft recovery boiler. This variable value is obtained by slow experimental routines and the delay of this measure disturbs the pulp and paper industry customary control. This paper describes an optimiza...
