Abstract:The feasibility of using an integrated method consisting of physical coal cleaning, mild gasification (MG) and low temperature oxidation (LTO) to produce chars with SO 2 emissions at least 50% lower than those of their parent coals was studied. MG and LTO studies were conducted in both a batch fluidized-bed reactor (FBR) and in continuous feed reactors. Combustion properties of coal-char blends were determined at the U.S. EPA in a 14 kW pilot-scale combustor and ash deposition behaviors of selected fuels were … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
