PhD Project - Optimal use of biomass in power plant boilers Combustion and Harmful Emission Control Research Centre Department of Chemical Engineering
A 3-year PhD position on the above mentioned topic is open at the CHEC (Combustion and Harmful Emission Control) Research Centre, Department of Chemical Engineering, Technical University of Denmark.
*Supervisors: *Associate Professor Peter Arendt Jensen (paj@kt.dtu.dk), Associate Professor Flemming Frandsen (ff@kt.dtu.dk), Professor Kim Dam-Johansen (kdj@kt.dtu.dk).
*Background:
*Utilization of biomass on large power plants is a potentially efficient method to reduce net CO2 emissions and reduce the consumption of fossil fuels. Use of biomass fuels in large suspension-fired boilers may cause operational problems. One example is when straw is applied as fuel in suspension fired boilers whereby severe ash deposit formation in the boiler chamber often takes place. Improved technologies for ash deposit removal are therefore needed.
This PhD study will deal with the development of models, experimental tools and innovative concepts to reduce ash related problems in biomass fired power plant boilers. The study shall be founded on solid knowledge on Chemical Engineering and will be conducted in tight collaboration with industrial partners. In some recent CHEC-projects both modeling tools, advanced probes and laboratory equipment have been developed and those tools will be available for the PhD project.
*Project content:
*The main objective is to develop methods to optimize the use of straw in power plant boilers and to develop and verify a model of the transient deposit formation in a boiler. Practical probe measurements on a full scale boiler will form the basis for a mathematical model for deposit formation taking all important parameters into consideration. Based on the results strategies for efficient boiler operation is to be established. The project will be conducted in collaboration with the power company Vattenfall.
The PhD-candidate will carry out the model development and conduct the probe measurements together with technicians. Vattenfall will operate the boiler and participate in the planning of the project.
*Contents of PhD application:
*Candidates should hold a master degree in chemical engineering, or similar
degree with an equivalent academic level. Applications must include Curriculum Vitae, a statement on your motivation for applying, recommendations, and copies of all grade lists and other relevant diplomas.
The salary and appointment terms are consistent with the current rules for PhD degree students at the Technical University of Denmark:

The way to AMINEF in Gedung Balai Pustaka
American Indonesian Exchange Foundation
Balai Pustaka Building, 6th. Floor
Jl. Gunung Sahari Raya No. 4
Jakarta 10720, Indonesia
1. The buses which goes to Senen Bus Station all of them pass through Gedung Balai Pustaka. Especially which route is through Pasar Baru .
2. Bus Transjakarta, from Blok M you have to change the bus 2-3 times.
Way 1 : from Blok M change the bus in Dukuh Atas bus stop to the bus towards Pulogadung, then take a bus in Pramuka bus stop towards Ancol, this bus pass through Gedung Balai Pustaka. The closest bus stop (Budi Utomo) is about 800 meters from Gedung Balai .
Way 2 : From Blok M take the bus in the Harmoni Bus Stop, the bus towards Pulogadung, get down in Senen Bus Stop and walk about 800 meters, or from this bus stop take the bus towards Ancol and get down as mentioned in way 1. About the distance, this two bus stops is about the same. (It is better if you take ojek or bajaj from this bus stop to Gedung Balai Pustaka)
3. If you take taxi with old tariff (TL=Tarif Lama) from blok M with no traffic jam is about Rp. 30.000,00.
4. From Blok M use bus Patas AC 76. Gedung Balai Pustaka is in the right side, after you pass through Depag, and say to conductor "Balai Pustaka"
5. Use a busway from Blok M towards Kota, get down in Sawah Besar bus stop. From here take a Mikrolet M12 towards Senen. After cross road Wahidin and before senen get down and cross the street.
