To evaluate screw feeding performance, biomass powders were fed through a twin screw feeder (K20, K-tron, Lenzburg, Switzerland). The feeder (Fig. 2), had a hemispherical hopper with a twin screw feeder of constant pitch (5.5 mm) and diameter (outer: 18.5 mm, shaft: 14.5 mm) with a fixed transport volume of about 0.13 dm 3 per …

DEM study on the mixed feeding process of coal and cylindroid biomass
A DEM model is developed to study the mixed feeding process in a screw feeder. ... During the screw feeding, the lower biomass blending ratio causes the more dispersed distribution of biomass particles inside the screw casing and the relatively larger variability of real-time biomass blending ratio would be found at the feeder outlet. With …

Screw feeders used to feed biomass operate in a manner similar to piston feeders, but have a somewhat lower pres-surization range (0.5e1.5 MPa). In a screw feeder, an auger compresses the feedstock into a compact plug, aided by tapering the feed channel, or by gradually reducing the pitch of the screw. The feed plug then forms a barrier, preventing
