Original abstract

This paper presents a case study dealing with heat recovery system in an incinerator of waste sludge from a pulp mill. The aim of this study is to find an optimised design of additional measures to be installed in the exhaust duct of the incinerator that would help to prevent fouling in a connected heat exchanger. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) approach is a natural choice for this application as no experimental evaluation of proposed solutions can be performed. Input data are obtained from the process using simpler balance-based approaches.
