This paper introduces the automatic fine Bituminous Coal injection lance position control method using flame image process. The fine Coal injection lance is used to supply additional heat into the furnace in Mill plant. It injects fine coal into high pressured air flow and produces very heated and high pressured flame. For the such high temperature and pressure, the fine coal injection lance effects not only efficiency of burner but also furnace abrasion. To keep efficient combustion status and to avoid the abrasion, in this paper, the flame is monitored by computer image process. This paper proposes the flame image process method and lance position control according to calculated result for flame image process.

In this study, the thermal behavior and combustion characteristics of different ranks of coals and their blends were investigated to obtain information necessary for the evaluation of the co-processing of blends with low-rank coals. Thermogravimetric analysis(TGA) and differential thermal analysis(DTA) were carried out at different temperature from ambient temperature to $800^{\circ}C$, and a laboratory-scale pulverized coal combustion burner was used with coal feeing rate of $1.04{\times}10^{-4}kg/s$.

Design and operation of $1MW_{th}$ pulverized coal combustion testing facility are described. Also the influence of air staging on NOx emission and burnout of coal flames was investigated in this facility. The test facility consisted of coal feeding system, firing system and flue gas treatment system. A top-fired externally air staging burner was adopted in order to avoid influence of gravity on the coal particles and for easy maintenance. Distribution of temperature and chemical species concentration of coal flames could be measured in vertical pass of furnace. Main fuel was pulverized (83.4% less than $80{\mu}m$) Australian high bituminous coal. From variety of test conditions, overall excess air ratio was selected at 1.2(20% excess air). Tho study showed that increasing the staged air resulted in lower NOx omission, and it was suggested to be more than 40% of the total combustion air for the substantial NOx reduction. Sufficient burnout was not achievable when NOx emission was less than 500ppm. Also, the amount of core air did not influence tho NOx reduction.

Coal-water mixture(CWM) fuel has attracted much attention as a substitute fuel for oil by which high economics and short-term commercialization might be realized in comparison with other coal conversion technologies. There are many factors that affect the CWM combustibility, such as the physical properties of CWM, the performance of atomizer and burner, operating conditions, capacity and load of the boiler, etc. Particularly, atomization quality is extremely critical to achieving acceptable carbon conversion efficiency of CWM fuel and maintaining the flame stability, because the coal particles in the CWM droplets burn as agglomerates. This paper presents the R&D results about the CWM atomization characteristics, including the significance of CWM atomization the R&D results about the CWM atomization characteristics, including the significance of CWM atomization quality, the atomization and combustion mechanism, the type of CWM atomizer, size and size distribution of CWM droplets and some factors that influence the atomization performance.

The flame image processing and analysis system has been investigated for the optimal pulverized coal firing of thermal power plant, especially for lower nitrogen oxide generation and more safe operation. We aimed at gaining the relationship between burner flame image information and emissions of nitrogen oxide and unburned carbon in furnace utilizing the flame image processing methods, by which we quantitatively determine the condition of combustion on the individual humors. Its feasibility test was undertaken with a pilot furnace for coal firing, through which the system was observed to be effective for the monitoring of the combustion condition of pulverized coal firing boilers.

본 연구는 80 kW급 단일버너 연소로에서 석탄 연소시 초저 NOx 버너 설계인자를 평가하기 위한 실험적 연구이다. 버너 설계 인자인 선회강도, 총 과잉 공기비, 버너 영역 과잉공기비, 1차/2차 산화제 비율, OFA 비율을 변경하여 총 81개 조건을 대상으로 실험을 수행 하였다. 실험 결과, 선회류가 약하면 연소로 출구에서 CO가 증가하고 연소로 내부 온도가 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나, 선회류가 강하면 NOx가 증가하기 때문에 적절한 선회류 강도를 결정하는 것은 NOx를 줄이는 데 중요한 요소이다. 1차/2차 산화제의 비율 또한 중요한 요소이며, 생성 된 NOx의 양은 산화제의 비율에 따라 달라진다. 2차 산화제의 비율이 증가하면 연소 초기에 NOx 방출량이 증가하고, 측정 된 배출구 NOx가 증가하게 된다. 그러나, 2차 산화제 비율이 감소하면 화염이 길어지고 CO가 증가한다. 본 연구에 사용 된 연소 시스템은 적절한 조건이 만족 될 때 O₂ 6%를 기준으로 최소 NOx가 82 ppm 생성되는 것으로 확인 되었다. 본 실험에서 대상으로 한 버너는 연소용 공기를 석탄을 이송하는 1차공기 외에 2차공기로 하나의 산화제 유동만 사용하는 방식으로서 추후 3차 및 4차공기로 분할하여 화염형태 및 반응을 세밀하게 제어할 경우 추가적인 NOx 감소가 가능할 것으로 예상된다.

The experimental design methodology was applied in the real scale coal-fired boiler to predict the various combustion properties according to the operating conditions and to assess the coal plant safety. Response surface method (RSM) was introduced as a design of experiment, and the database for RSM was provided with the numerical simulation of the coal-fired boiler. The three independent variables, high heating value of coal (HHV), overall stoichiometry excess air ratio (OST), and burner-side stoichiometry excess air ratio (BST), were set to characterize the cross section averaged NOx concentration and temperature distribution. The maximum NOx concentration was predicted accurately and mainly controlled by BST in the boiler. The parabola function was assumed for the zone averaged peak temperature distribution, and the prediction was in a fairly good agreement with the experiments except downstream. Also, the location of the peak temperature was compared with that of maximum NOx, which implies that thermal NOx formation is the main mechanism in the coal-fired boiler. These results promise the wide use of statistical models for the fast prediction and safety assessment.

본 연구에서는 석탄화력보일러에서 고수분탄 및 건조석탄 사용이 연소와 배기배출 특성에 미치는 영향에 대한 전산해석 연구를 수행하였다. 대상 보일러 설계 조건의 성능데이터를 기준으로 보일러 해석 모델 결과를 검증하였으며, 역청탄과 고수분탄 및 건조석탄을 혼소하는 조건에 대한 계산을 수행하였다. 고수분탄 혼소 비율이 높아질수록 가스 수직속도는 증가하였으며, 이는 연료의 노내 체류시간을 줄여 보일러 연소성에 영향을 미칠 것으로 판단된다. 건조석탄을 혼소할 경우 역청탄과 유사한 연소 및 배기배출 특성을 보였다. 고수분탄 혼소 비율이 높아질수록 수분영향에 의해 버너영역에서 연소반응 및 NOx 생성은 감소하였으며, OFA(Over-fire air) 이후에 가스온도와 NOx 생성이 높아지는 결과를 확인하였다.

In Korean coal power plants, rising coal prices have recently led to the rapid utilization of low lank coals such as sub-bituminous coal with low calorific values and low ash fusion temperatures. Using these coals beyond the design range has resulted in important issues including slagging and fouling, which cause negative effects in boiler performances and unstable operations. The purpose of this study is to observe slagging and fouling characteristics resulted from burning various ranks of pulverized coals. We have tested 3 different coals: FLAME(bituminous), KCH(sub-bituminous) and MOOLARBEN(bituminous)coals in the pilot system $50kW_{th}$ scale. A stainless steel tube with preheated air inside was installed in the downstream in order to simulate water wall. Collected ash on the probe and the slag inside the furnace near burner were analyzed by SEM (scanning electron microscopy) to verify the formation degree, surface features and color changes of the pasty ash particles. Induced coupled plasma and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy were also performed to figure out the chemical characteristics of collected samples. As a result, KCH was observed that more slag was developed inside the walls of the furnace and on the probe than the other two kinds of coals, as shown in the calculate slagging and fouling indices as well.

KEPRI is developing a Korean type coal-gasification system and the scale is 20 ton/day. Prior to this pilot plant, a 1 ton/day class gasification system will be used for pre-testing of several coal types. This paper introduces the configuration and design conditions of this 1 ton/day class system, presenting the gas/coal ratio, oxygen/coal ratio, cold gas efficiency, CFD analysis of gasifier, and others. The existing combustion furnace for residual oil was retrofitted as a coal gasifier and a vertical and down-flow type burner was manufactured. Ash removal is carried out through a water quencher and a scrubber following the quencher, and the sulfur is removed by adsorption in the activated carbon tower. The gas produced from the gasifier is burned at the flare stack. In this paper, the results of design conditions and initial operation conditions of I ton/day gasification system are compared together.
