There has been an increase in the use of biomass for power generation by means of co-firing with coal as well as by the combustion of 100% biomass. Despite the advantages of biomass in reducing carbon emissions from the electricity sector, the co-firing of high percentages of biomass can potentially aggravate ash related problems in the boiler. In order to develop mitigation strategies for the formation...
At the present time, computer models for coal combustion are not sufficiently accurate to enable the design of combustion plant or the selection of a coal based on combustion behaviour. Most comprehensive combustion models can predict with reasonable accuracy flow fields and heat transfer, but usually with a much lesser degree of accuracy than the combustion of the coal particles through to char burnout...
In this study, the use of an artificial neural network for predicting the reactivity of coal/char combustion was investigated. A database containing the combustion rate reactivity of 55 chars derived from 26 coals covering a wide range of rank and geographic origin was established to train and test the neural networks. The heat treatment temperature of the chars ranged from 1000 to 1500 o ...
