A bubbling fluidized bed reactor with a 2-meter-high reaction tube has been newly installed. By supplying air or reactive gas from the bottom, the particle bed is fluidized to create a uniform reaction environment.

The DTF simulates spray combustion under conditions similar to commercial boiler. In our lab, is used to evaluate ash deposition and combustion characteristics.

It is equipped with a vertically movable electric furnace which allow for rapid heating of samples to simulate isothermal combustion and gasification processes.

A button-shaped solid oxide fuel cell is placed in the ceramic holder and utilized for performance evaluation under biomass gasification gas conditions.

The furnace is designed to prevent direct heating of the sample by the heater. Instead, indirect heating is achieved using a partition, such as an alumina ceramic plate. This setup is used for ashing and pyrolysis experiments.

A novel NOx reduction device featuring a calcium ferrite-based catalyst and capable of continuous biomass char feeding is currently under development. Stay tuned!

The nanostructure of the sample is observed at the nanometer scale. Coupled with EDX, qualitative and quantitative element analysis is also possible.

It performs elemental analysis (C,H,N,S) of organic compounds using the combustion method. It is extensively applied in various materials, including coal, biomass, and waste.

The use of a horizontal differential system minimizes the effect of gas flow, allowing for simultaneous differential thermal and thermogravimetric measurements.

It is used for analyzing exhaust gas composition. A variety of models are available in our lab to accommodate different types of exhaust gases.

It is capable of detecting shrinkage displacement under load during heating process.

This device measures the wettability between substrate and sample. Equipped with a CCD camera, it enables quantitative evaluation of time-dependent changes in the contact angle.

This device measures specific surface area and pore size distribution using the volumetric method based on gas adsorption.

Without any pretreatment, solid samples can be directly analyzed for trace elements in a non-destructive way.
