CWS(coal-water slurry) is used for application in power plants, boilers, industrial furnaces. A single coal-water slurry droplet ignition has been examined to reveal the basic nature of their evaporation, volatilization and heating processes. The interior droplet temperature distribution has been considered. The effect of coal thermal conductivity, droplet size, water fraction in the slurry, gas temperature and velocity and radiation on the ignition phenomena were also studied. Either increasing the velocity and gas temperature or decreasing the droplet size and water fraction in the slurry may reduce the time for evaporation and ignition delay time.

There is potential method to utilize the liquid carbon dioxide ($LCO_2$) in coal gasification plants. The $LCO_2$ could be used to effectively transport coal particles instead of conventional carrier such as liquid water ($H_2O$) particularly in wet-fed gasifier. However, there is a lack of fundamental study on the atomization behavior of $LCO_2$ coal slurry under high pressure condition. In this study, the flashing spray characteristics of a coal mixture with $LCO_2$ was examined during a throttling process by using a flow visualization system. The spray of coal water slurry which is in the Rayleigh-type break up mode was significantly different. This difference indicates that the coal water slurry did not effectively transport the coal, as compared to $LCO_2$ coal slurry.

The purpose of this experiment is to understand the distribution of coal particles inside CWM droplet which is believed to be a very important factor controlling the flame stability. CWM slurry is atomized by an air assisted twin fluid nozzle. An experimental rig is designed and fabricated. The mean size of coal particle distribution in CWM slurry, atomizing air pressure, coal particle loading in slurry and sampling position inside spray are main experimental variables. The atomized CWM droplets are sampled on the thin white layer of magnesium oxide by the emergency sampling shutter. The sampled coal particles on magnesium oxide layers are collected into test tubes and dispersed completely by Ultra-Sonicator. The size distribution of coal particles inside droplets are measured by Coulter Counter. The presence of coal particle inside the impressions of droplets on magnesium oxide layer are investigated by photo technique. There are quite many droplets which do not have any coal particles. Those are just water droplets, not CWM droplets. The population ratio of droplets without coal particles to toal number of droplets is strongly affected by the mean size of coal particle distribution in slurry and this ration becomes bigger number as the mean size of coal particles be larger. The size distribution of coal particles inside CWM droplets is not even and depends on the size of droplet. Experimental results show that the larger CWM droplets has droplets has bigger mean value of particle size distribution. This trend becomes more evident as the atomizing air pressure is raised and the mean size of coal particles in CWM slurry is bigger. That is, the distribution of coal particles inside CWM dropolets is very much affected by the atomizing air pressure and the mean size of pulverized coal particles in CWM slurry.

석탄으로부터 수소, 일산화탄소 등의 가스 연료를 생산하기 위하여 개발된 석탄 가스화 공정은 이산화탄소 저장, 환경 유해 물질 저감 등의 우수성으로 인하여 최근 세계 각국에서 앞다투어 개발에 나서고 있다. $75{\mu}m$ 이하의 미분탄을 이용하는 분류층 가스화 공정은 용량의 대형화가 쉽고, 에너지 전환 효율이 우수하여 석탄가스화복합발전(IGCC) 등에 널리 이용되고 있다. 특히 석탄슬러리를 원료로 사용하는 습식 분류층 가스화 공정은 기술적으로 성숙되어 가장 많이 보급되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 습식 분류층 가스화 공정을 이루는 석탄전처리, 버너, 가스화기, 슬래그용융, 가스화 운전 특성과 설계 및 해석을 위한 수치모사 등의 요소기술 개발 현황을 고찰하였다. 습식 석탄가스화는 IGCC 플랜트에서 뿐만 아니라 합성석유, SNG, 화학원료 제조용으로 활용될 수 있으며 융합 공정, 연료 다변화 등에 대응하기 위하여 요소기술별 추가적인 기술개발이 이루어져야 할 것으로 판단된다.

The coal gasification process of a slurry feed type, entrained-flow coal gasifier was numerically predicted in this paper. By divding the complicated coal gasification process into several simplified stages suh as slurry evaporation, coal devolitilisation and two-phase reactions coupled with turbulent flow and two-phase heat transfer, a comprehensive numerical model was constructed to simulate the coal gasification process. The k-$\varepsilon$turbulence model was used for the gas phase flow while the Random-trajectory model was applied to describe the behavior of the coal slurry particles. The unreacted-core shrinking model and modified Eddy Break-Up(EBU) model were used to simulate the heterogeneous and homogeneous reactions, respectively. The simulation results obtained the detailed informations about the flow field, temperature inside the gasifier. Meanwhile, the simulation results were compared with the experimental data as function of $O_2$/coal ratio. It illustrated that the calculated carbon conversions agreed with the measured ones and that the measurd quality of the atngas was better than the calculated one when the $O_2$/coal ratio increases. The result was related with the total heat loss through the gasifier and uncertain kinetics for the heterogeneous reactions.

기존의 미분탄 화력발전을 대체할 수 있는 차기 주자인 가스화복합발전(Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle) 기술은 단순히 열과 전기를 얻는데 그치지 않고 $CO_2$ 저감뿐만 아니라 다양한 형태의 2차 에너지원과 화학원료를 생산할 수 있는 기술이다. 상용화 운전 중인 기존의 IGCC 플랜트는 석탄 공급에 있어 건조된 미분탄(dry pulverized coal) 형태로 공급하는 건식 형태와 석탄슬러리(Coal water slurry)의 액상으로 공급하는 습식 형태로 대별되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 ASPEN plus를 이용하여 상용화 IGCC 플랜트에 대한 기본 모델을 구축하였으며, 산지별로 대상 탄종을 illinois #6(미국), Shenhua(중국), Drayton(호주)로 선정하여 가스화공정에 대한 성능을 해석하였다. 동일한 발전 출력을 얻고자 하였을 때, 석탄의 공급방식에 따라 필요한 석탄과 유틸리티 공급량과 가스화기 전${\cdot}$후단에서의 운전특성과 생성되는 합성가스(syngas) 조성, 냉가스(cold gas) 효율 및 탄소 전환율을 통해 각 case에 대한 플랜트 특성을 비교하였다.

Coal is the most abundant fossil fuel on Earth and is used in a wide range of applications. The direct combustion of high-sulfur coal produces a large amount of sulfur dioxide, which is a toxic and corrosive gas. A new superconducting high gradient magnetic separation (HGMS) technology was studied to remove sulfur from high sulfur coal. The magnetic separation concentrate was obtained under the optimum parameters, such as a particle size of -200 mesh, a magnetic field strength of 2.0 T, a slurry concentration of 15 g/L, and a slurry flow rate of 600 ml/min. The removal rate of sulfur is up to 59.9%. The method uses a magnetic field to remove sulfur-containing magnetic material from a pulverized coal solution. It is simple process with, high efficiency, and is a new way.

An entrained flow gasifier simulating the cold mode was tested to estimate its performance for coal gasification and flow characteristics with a developed high speed impinging jet nozzle. The burner was designed for high temperature and high pressure(HTHP) conditions, especially for IGCC(Integrated Coal Gasification Combined Cycle). In order to get proper size of droplets for high viscous liquid such as coal slurry, atomization was achieved by impacting slurry with high speed (over 150m/sec) secondary gas (oxygen/or air)/ Formed water droplets were ranged between 100.mu.m to 20.mu.m in their sizes. The flow characteristics in the gasifier was well understood in mixing between fuel and oxidizer. Both external and internal recirculation zones were closely investigated through experimentation with visualization and numerical solutions from FLUENT CODE.
