Model : GDY-1A+
Determines gross calorific value of solid and liquid fuels.
The GDY-1A+ Oxygen Bomb Calorimeter is a high-precision instrument for determining the gross calorific value (GCV) of solid and liquid fuels, waste materials, and biomass. It delivers essential energy content data for waste-to-energy evaluation, fuel quality control, and circular economy resource assessment.

- Precision Combustion Calorimetry
- Waste-to-Energy Evaluation
Overview
Our center is equipped with a GDY-1A+ Oxygen Bomb Calorimeter, a robust isoperibol system for accurate heat of combustion measurement. The instrument combusts a sample under pressurized oxygen in a sealed bomb, measuring the temperature rise in a precisely controlled water jacket.
This provides direct quantification of the energy content of municipal solid waste, refuse-derived fuel, biomass, and industrial residues, supporting informed decisions in energy recovery, alternative fuel development, and waste management.
What It Measures
The calorimeter quantifies the total heat released during complete combustion at constant volume, reported as calorific value on a dry or as-received basis.
-
Gross Calorific Value (GCV) Total heat released by complete combustion, including latent heat of water vapor.
-
Energy Content Quantified in MJ/kg or kcal/kg for comparative fuel and waste assessment.
-
Combustion Heat Direct temperature rise converted to calorific value via benzoic acid calibration.
Key Applications
The oxygen bomb calorimeter provides critical energy content data for waste-to-energy, biomass utilization, and fuel quality control.
-
Waste-to-Energy Assessment Determines calorific value of solid waste for incineration feasibility.
-
Biomass Fuel Evaluation Quantifies energy content of agricultural and forestry residues.
-
Refuse-Derived Fuel (RDF) Analysis Verifies energy specifications of processed fuel products.
All devices are operated within standardized laboratory workflows to ensure accuracy, traceability, and compliance with analytical standards.
