Predicting changes in the sulfur content during steam coal preparation and the level of sulfur dioxide emissions when its combustion

Purpose. Development of a method and forecast estimation sulfur dioxide emission reduction during combustion steam coal by regulating its quality preparation. Methodology. Study on content in using sieve, fractional analysis, analysis ash total content. Forecasting concentrate according to the developed calculation method. Production tests at preparation plant. level SO2 emissions pulverized Findings. The distribution Ukrainian bituminous size classes depending is investigated; proximity linear dependance run-of-mine coal, rock-free substance, rock proved. calculations cleaned products taking into account their elemental composition performed, dependence lower heating value (LHV) ratio Based obtained results, methods are for determining expected forecasted combustion; optimal depth from various mines determined criterion compliance with current environmental standards. Originality. Proximity LHV clean Practical value. A has been jigging, allowable high-density fraction adding dense slimes products. predicted combustion.
