Abstract: Fluidization curve of reactor and the influence of the shape of material to residence time have been studied with EPE foam as a tracer material on the basis of establishing experiment device of recycling carbon fibre using the oxygen pyrolysis method in order to ensure that recycled carbon fibre can be moved. The minimum fluidization velocity and carryover rate have been determined through calculating with formulas and analyzing fluidization curve from experiment. The experimental results show that the critical fluidization velocity and carry-over velocity of solids are 0.15m/s and 0.24m/s, respectively. The shape of material affects its residence time in fluidized bed. The residence time order from long to short of single shape materials is the cylinder, rectangle and sphere in turn in the fluidized bed; mixture residence time order from long to short is sphere and cylinder, sphere and rectangle, rectangle and cylinder mixture. Mixture of rectangle and cylinder or single sphere as pyrolysis material should be used to thermal test in order to discharge recycled carbon fiber as soon as possible.

Key words: carbon fibre, recovery device, residence time, shape of material, fluidization curve
