Manufacture and Characterization of Alumina Ceramic Foams for Porous Burners

Abstract:

Hazardous byproducts emissions such as nitrogen oxides (NOx) and carbon monoxide (CO) might be controlled by the use of radiant porous burners. Those heaters require a solid porous matrix where combustion reaction takes place, reason why the heat transfer is much more efficient. This project was based on a rheology study of an alumina slurry, where parameters like viscosity and tixotropy were the guide to select the appropriate formulation to be used in the fabrication of ceramic foams by the replica method. Low strength samples were produced after the first thermal treatment, explained by the absence of a plasticizer when using PVA as a binder. Incomplete sintered foams were obtained due to an insufficient soak time.
