Abstract

This study aims to investigate the characteristics on bottom ash flotation using vegetable oils as a collector. The experiment of changing the kerosene dosage as a collector for the flotation of coal ashes, the recovery of unburned carbon and unburned carbon content were 80% and 63%, respectively, when the dosage of kerosene was 9 kg/ton. The experiment of using soybean oil as a collector to improve flotation efficiency, the recovery of unburned carbon and unburned carbon content increased to 95% and 68%, respectively, when the dosage of soybean oil was 9 kg/ton. The recovery of unburned carbon and unburned carbon content were 99% and 78%, respectively, when safflower oil containing more poly unsaturated fats with double bonds than soybean oil was 9 kg/ton. The calorific value of the unburned carbon was 5,803 cal/g, confirming that it was possible to be used as a fuel for thermal power plants. Lastly, using vegetable oil as a collector it showed higher recovery of unburned carbon and higher unburned carbon than kerosene, which was mineral oil. Moreover, oil containing a large amount of poly unsaturated fat with two or more double bonds was found to have higher unburned carbon than other vegetable oils; thus showing excellent adsorbability for unburned carbon.

식물성 기름을 포수제로 사용하였을 때 바텀애쉬 부유선별의 특성에 대해 알아보고자 본 연구를 실시하였다. 석탄회 부유선별에서 유상 포수제로 사용되는 Kerosene의 첨가량 변화에 따른 실험에서 Kerosene을 9 kg/ton의 비율로 첨가하였을 때, 미연탄소 회수율이 80%, 부유 산물의 미연탄소 함량이 63%인 것으로 나타났다. 부유선별 효율을 향상시키기 위해 식물성 기름인 콩유를 포수제로 사용한 실험에서는 콩유를 9 kg/ton의 비율로 첨가하였을 때, 미연탄소 회수율과 부유 산물의 미연탄소 함량이 각각 95%, 68%로 증가하였다. 콩유보다 이중결합이 있는 폴리 형태의 불포화 지방산이 많이 함유된 홍화씨유를 9 kg/ton의 비율로 첨가하였을 때, 미연탄소 회수율 99%, 부유 산물의 미연탄소 함량은 78%로 나타났다. 부유 산물의 미연탄소 발열량은 5,803 cal/g으로 나타나 화력발전소 에너지 연료로 활용이 가능함을 확인하였다. 최종적으로 식물성 기름을 포수제로 사용하였을 때 광물성 기름인 Kerosene보다 미연탄소 회수율과 부유 산물의 미연탄소 함량이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 식물성 기름 중 이중 결합이 2개 이상인 폴리형태의 불포화 지방산이 많이 함유된 기름일수록 부유 산물의 미연탄소 함량이 높아 미연탄소에 대한 흡착성이 우수한 것을 알 수 있었다.
