Fundamental Models of Coal Char Formation and Combustion
نویسنده
چکیده
The overall objective of this project is to carry out the fundamental research needed to develop a first-generation, structure-based model of coal char formation and combustion. Current models of char combustion and carbon burnout estimate char behavior from empirical relations based on parent coal properties. With the wide range of fuels of interest to modern combustion systems (international coals, biomass fuels, waste fuels) there is a need for more fundamental, generalized techniques to predict solid fuel char behavior.

Effect of volatile-char interaction on the NO emission from coal combustion.
To clarify the effects of volatile-char interaction on the redistribution of fuel-N to N2 during devolatilization and the reduction of NO through gas-solid reactions during combustion, two types of experiments were performed on a novel reactor. The separate combustion of volatile and char and the combustion of entrained pulverized coal, and the formation of NO was examined between 800 and 1100 ...
متن کاملEffect of Pressure on Ash Formation during Pulverised Coal Combustion and Gasification
In this paper, effects of the operating pressure on ash formation reported in the open literature have been reviewed. In particular, the recent significant advances achieved at the Cooperative Research Centre for Coal in Sustainable Development (CCSD) in Australia are highlighted. The operating pressure significantly influences the size and the chemistry of ash generated through its effects on ...
متن کاملThe effect of model fidelity on prediction of char burnout for single-particle coal combustion
Practical simulation of industrial-scale coal combustion relies on the ability to accurately capture the dynamics of coal subprocesses while also ensuring the computational cost remains reasonable. The majority of the residence time occurs post-devolatilization, so it is of great importance that a balance between the computational efficiency and accuracy of char combustion models is carefully c...
متن کاملChar refiring under O2/N2 and O2/CO2 atmospheres. Implication for PCI injection in blast furnace
It is attempt in pulverized coal injection (PCI) in blast furnace tuyeres to increase the injection rate without increasing the amount of unburned char inside the stack of the blast furnace. The unburned char can cause problems in the blast furnace operation, such as reduced permeability, undesirable gas/temperature distribution, excessive coke erosion and significant char carryover. In the nea...
متن کاملKinetic models for the oxy-fuel combustion of coal and coal/biomass blend chars obtained in N2 and CO2 atmospheres
The thermal reactivity and kinetics of five coal chars, a biomass char, and two coal/biomass char blends in an oxy-fuel combustion atmosphere (30%O2-70%CO2) were studied using the non-isothermal thermogravimetric method at three heating rates. Fuel chars were obtained by devolatilization in an entrained flow reactor at 1273 K under N2 and CO2 atmospheres.Three nth-order representative gas-solid...
