operating costs and, at the same time, increase productivity. One way to achieve this is through the injection of pulverised coal directly into the BF. Pulverised coal injection (PCI) provides important economic and operational benefits. These include: lower consumption of expensive coking coals. Replacing
The researchers believe that the use of saltbased additives when burning coal could help improve fuel efficiency in energy production, minimize energy use for preheating power generating ...
The method of achieving more efficient use of engine fuels and increasing their octane number by means of organic fuel additives is widely known [].For example, methyltertbutyl ether (the amount of which produced in Russia alone is around 1 million t a year) is used as an additive to achieving more efficient use of diesel fuel, OFAs on the basis of alcohols and light ethers with ...
Volatile matter (VM) is the percentage loss in mass, adjusted for moisture, when coal is heated out of contact with air under standard conditions. In this test, 1 g of sample is placed into a lidded crucible (to prevent ingress of air), which is placed in a furnace at 900 °C for 7 min or 950 °C if using the ASTM method. Moisture in the analysis sample is determined concurrently.

Mickiewicza 30, 30059 Krakow, Poland Abstract. Catalytic coal gasification is a process that has the potential
Coke chemical companies often have a deficit of coals of particularly valuable grades, the coking coals. This work studies the opportunity of producing petroleum coking additives using delayed coking during heavy petroleum residue processing. Experiments for the production of a carbon material were conducted using three kinds of heavy petroleum residues of the oil refinery plant Ltd Kinef: the ...
Aluminum silicatebased, aluminumbased, and magnesiumbased additives were used in coal combustion to comprehensively evaluate ash fusion temperature, thermal properties, ash deposit, emission, and ash mineral morphology. The results showed that additives in highrisk coal/blended coal could reduce ash sintering during the combustion.
Pitch as a matrix precursor usually requires a modification of the raw pitch to have a high coke yield while maintaining good fluidity. Several methods have been used to modify petroleum or coaltar pitch (CTP): the treatment of pitch with sulfur as an additive [1], [7], mild oxidation by air blowing [8], [9], [10], and nitrogen blowing [11].
The coal consists of raw combustibles and inert ash. Coal particle is assumed to be a sphere with a swelling core and modeled by the Lagrangian particle tracking (LPT) method [2], [22]. In simulations, the devolatilization process of raw combustibles releases the Volatile Matter (VM) into the gas while leaving the char in the core.
Ignition temperature of coal and other dust is not affected by particle size. A big difference is made by the way coal dust comes in contact with a heat source. Thus, layered powder of coal can ignite at a much lower temperature (160°C approx.), whereas a cloud of coal dust will need 450650°C to ignite. Table shows some relevant data [5].
Coal additives have a function to improve the calorific value of coal and improve combustion efficiency. Some pulverized coal samples were prepared based on ASTM D2013/D2013M18, then mixed with coal additives until homogeneous. The lab instruments are the bomb calorimeter and the proximate analysis.
The operational efficiency of a coke plant depends on three vital aspects: first, the produced coke should meet the quality standards required for the use of modern blast furnaces; second, the environmental consideration; and third, the cost of the coke.
gas fat lean coal (GZhO), sinter lowcaking lowmetamorphized coal (KSN), sinter lowcaking coal (KS), long flame coal (DG), lean caking coal (TS), and lowcaking coal (SS) that are second to coking coals in quality and degrade the charge, which finally affects the coke,16 In general, the Gray−King coke method is used for the
Refined coal is most commonly made by mixing proprietary additives to feedstock coal. These additives increase the production of mercury oxides, which can then be captured by using mercury emission reduction technologies such as flue gas desulfurization scrubbers and particulate matter control systems.. Refined coal production qualifies for a tax credit under the American Jobs Creation Act of ...

AFT is an indicator of the ash melting behavior in the gasification process (Li, 2010).For the gasification of lowrank coals, such as lignite and brown coal, in fixed and fluidized beds ...
Coal dust, or anthracite, is fast becoming a common additive in the green sand moulding process. It is a carbonaceous additive that under foundry conditions combusts and oxidises. Historically, the leading additive in green sand casting, as a carbonaceous material, was highly volatile bituminous coal, often referred to as sea coal.
These additives modify and accelerate Portland cement hydration process, change its physical characteristics and mechanical behaviour. There a number of studies investigating the use of silica fume, coal, zeolites and ash as concrete supplements (pozzolanic additives) [2], [3]. Zeolites contain a high content of SiO 2 and Al 2 O 3.
To help in building a recyclingoriented sustainable society, Nippon Steel Sumitomo Metal Corporation developed a waste plasticrecycling process using coke oven and put it into commercial operation in 2000. Now roughly 200,000 tons per year of waste plastics are processed in coke oven in Japan. In this process, the waste plastics collected from s are agglomerated to the sizes ...
The recent changes in anthropogenic clean coal technologies limiting fine particles and NO X emissions have led to a dramatic increase in nucleation mode PN between 5 nm and 15 nm.
The two castings produced with 2% binder showed more pearlite in the surface layer, indicating surface carburization. Experiments were conducted to compare red and black iron oxide to six other materials and engineered sand additives (Fig. 2) at two different levels. RIO: Red iron oxide or hematite (Fe2O3) with a fine powder.
For the rest of additives, which act reducing fluidity, it should be also taken into account that coalbased carbon s can also be prepared from lowfluidity coals (<20 ddpm) [13,21].
The selection of coals mills for power station applications is dependent on a number of process issues such as coal grindability (usually given as Hardgrove Grindability Index (HGI) or Bond Index), coal moisture, feed size, Abrasion Index, coal rank (lignite mills, for example, tend to be of very specific design) as well as some practical considerations such as plant layout, available floor ...
As volatile matter is driven from the coal matrix with increasing rank, the relative carbon percentage tends to increase. Both volatile matter and fixed carbon are used to define coal rank in highvolatile, mediumvolatile bituminous, and higherrank coals in the classification system (ASTM method D38812; American Society for Testing and ...
Denitrification experiments of cocombustion of coal and additives were carried out in a horizontal tube furnace. The results showed that calcium acetate limited the production of NO2. The optimum calcination temperature of CTABZrTiO2 was 673 K. The denitrification efficiency reached up to %, and desulfurization efficiency reached % when corncob, calcium acetate, and CTABZrTiO2 ...
It is possible to increase the cetane number of a fuel by the use of energetic additives that encourage the autoignition process. Fig. illustrates the delay in ignition observed for a low cetane base fuel versus base fuel to which a cetane improver additive was added to yield a ten cetane number increase.
The additives reduce the ignition temperature and the temperature corresponding to the maximum combustion rate of pulverized coal; simultaneously, they increase the heat released during pulverized ...
How coal is formed. Coal is formed when dead plant matter submerged in swamp environments is subjected to the geological forces of heat and pressure over hundreds of millions of years. Over time, the plant matter transforms from moist, lowcarbon peat, to coal, an energy and carbondense black or brownishblack sedimentary rock.
