Fly ash produced in coal combustion is a fine-grained material consisting mostly of spherical, glassy, and porous particles. A study on the formation mechanism of the fly ash from coal particles in the pulverized coal power plant is investigated with a physical, morphological, and chemical characteristic analysis of fly ash collected from the Samchonpo power plant. This study may contribute to the data base of domestic fly ash, the improvement of combustion efficiency, fouling phenomena and ash collection in the electrostatic precipitator. The physical property of fly ash is determined using a particle counter for the measurement of ash size distribution. Morphological characteristic of fly ash is performed using a scanning electron micrograph. The chemical components of fly ash are determined using an inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometry(ICP). The distribution of fly ash size was bi-modal and ranged from 12 to $19{\mu}m$ in mass median diameter. Exposure conditions of flue gas temperature and duration within the combustion zone of the boiler played an important role on the morphological properties of the fly ash such as shape, particle size and chemical components. The evolution of ash formation during pulverized coal combustion has revealed three major mechanisms by large particle formation due to break-up process, gas to particle conversion and growth by coagulation and agglomeration.

석탄재는 석탄 연소 시 발생하는 것으로 포집 방법에 따라 비산재와 바닥재로 나눌 수 있다. 비산재와 바닥재는 특성에 따라 다양한 용도로 재활용이 가능하다. 호주는 세계에서 네 번째로 석탄을 생산하는 국가이며 석탄재를 시멘트, 콘크리트, 광산 채움재, 농업용 토양 개량제 등으로 활용하고 있다. 비산재는 시멘트, 콘크리트용 보충제로 사용하면 시멘트의 강도와 콘크리트의 내구성을 향상시킬 수 있다. 광산 채움재로 석탄재를 활용하면 지반을 안정화시킬 수 있으며 석탄재의 다량 처리가 가능하다. 석탄재는 주로 알카리성이므로 광산 채움재로 사용 시 산성광산배수를 중화시킬 수 있다. 또한, 토양 개량제로 사용하면 산도 개선 효과를 얻을 수 있으며 토양의 물리적 특성 개선이나 식물에 필요한 원소를 공급할 수 있다. 호주 비산재는 식물 독성에 영향을 미치는 미량 원소 함량이 낮으며, 방사성 원소 함량도 토양 배경 농도 범위 내에 존재하기 때문에 재활용 가능성은 더 확대될 것이다. 석탄재의 특성은 연소에 사용한 석탄의 특성과 관련이 있으며 한국은 호주에서 석탄을 수입하기 때문에 한국의 석탄재도 다양한 용도로 재활용이 가능할 것이다.

In pulverized coal fired boilers, slagging and fouling may cause significant effect on the operational life of boiler. As increasing a consumption of low rank coal, slagging and fouling are main issues in pulverized coal combustion. This study predicts ash deposition propensity in a 0.7 MW pilot-scale furnace. Slagging model is employed as a User-Defined Function (UDF) of FLUENT and validated against measurement and prediction. The results show good agreement compared with experiment. There is need to development of a pulverized coal combustion and slagging analysis at low coal.

The objective of this study is development of low emission pulverized coal combustor for reducing pollutant emission generated from coal combustion. Low emission combustion technology for reducing NOx and fly ash was investigated by using 2 stage coaxial cyclone combustor. Staged combustion was employed for NOx reduction and high temperature slagging combustion was also studied for fly ash removal in the combustor. The result of this study shows that the low emission combustion system can reduce the amount of atmospheric pollutions with improved boiler efficiency and performance.

The chemical characterization of water-soluble organic carbon in ash emitted from a coal combustion boiler has not been reported yet. A total of 5 ash samples were collected from the outlet of an electrostatic precipitator in a commercial 500 MW coal-fired power plant, with their chemical characteristics investigated. XAD7HP resin was used to quantify the hydrophilic and hydrophobic water-soluble organic carbons (WSOC), which are the fractions of WSOC that penetrate and remain on the resin column, respectively. Calibration results indicate that the hydrophilic fraction includes aliphatic dicarboxylic acids and carbonyls (<4 carbons), amines and saccharides, while the hydrophobic fraction includes aliphatic dicarboxylic acids (>4-5 carbons), phenols, aromatic acids, cyclic acid and humic acid. The average mass of the WSOC in the ash samples was found to depend on the bituminous coal type being burned, and ranged from 163 to 259 ${\mu}g$ C/g of ash, which corresponds to 59-96 mg C of WSOC/kg of coal combusted. The WSOC mass accounted for 0.02-0.03 wt% of the used ash sample mass. Based on the flow rate of flue gas produced from the combustion of the blended coals in the 500 MW coal combustion boiler, it was estimated that the WSOC particles were emitted to the atmosphere at flow rates of 4.6-7.2 g C/hr. The results also indicated that the hydrophilic WSOC fraction in the coal burned accounted for 64-82% of the total WSOC, which was 2-4 times greater than the mass of the hydrophobic WSOC fraction.

New way to effectively capture $CO_2$ in coal fired power plant is the combustion of coal using oxy-fuel technology. Combustion characteristics of Minco sub-bituminous coal at oxy-fuel conditions using TGA and drop tube furnace (DTF) were included activation energy about the char burnout, volatile yield and combustion efficiency of raw coal, the porosity of pyrolyzed char and fusion temperature of by-product ash. TGA result shows that the effect of $CO_2$ on combustion kinetics reduces activation energy by approximately 7 kJ/mol at air oxygen level(21% $O_2$) and decreases the burning time by approximately 16%. The results from DTF indicated similar combustion efficiency under $O_2/CO_2$ and $O_2/N_2$ atmospheres for equivalent $O_2$ concentration whereas high combustion efficiency under $O_2/N_2$ than $O_2/CO_2$ was obtained for high temperature of more than $1,100^{\circ}C$. Overall coal burning rate under $O_2/CO_2$ is decreased due to the lower rate of oxygen diffusion into coal surface through the $CO_2$ rich boundary layer. By-product ash produced under $O_2/CO_2$ and $O_2/N_2$ was similar IDT in irrelevant to $O_2$ concentration and atmospheres gas during the coal combustion.

본 연구는 고회분탄의 최적화된 연소 조건을 알아보기 위해 회분 함량이 각기 다른 네 종류 석탄의 연소시 배출되는 NOx및 미연분 특성을 알아보았다. 실험은 DTF(Drop Tube Furnace)를 통해서 다양한 입자크기조건 및 공기다단방식을 도입하여 수행하였다. 결과로 회분의 함량이 증가할수록 미연분이 증가하며, 입자크기가 증대될수록 미연분에 대한 회분의 영향이 명확해짐을 확인하였다. 또한, 회분의 함량이 증가할수록 Char-NOx가 감소하며, 입자크기가 감소할수록 NOx의 배출이 감소하는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구는 고회분탄의 NOx를 저감하는 방법으로 공기다단방식의 적용을 제안하며 전단 연소 영역의 공기과잉률 변화를 통한 최적화된 연소조건을 제시하였다.

본 연구에서는 산업부산물 중 순환유동층 연소방식과 미분탄 연소과정에서 발생되는 플라이애시와 고로슬래그 미분말을 치환한 시멘트 모르타르의 특성을 파악하였다. 연구 결과, 순환유동층 플라이애시 및 미분탄 플라이애시 혼합 사용 시 강도발현 뿐만 아니라 내구성 측면에서도 유리하게 나타난다. 순환유동층 플라이애시는 초기 반응성 향상에 기여하며, 미분탄 플라이애시는 포졸란 반응으로 장기 강도 발현에 관여하게 된다. 따라서 순환유동층 플라이애시와 미분탄 플라이애시의 혼합사용은 고로슬래그 미분말을 치환한 시멘트 모르타르의 상호 보완적인 요소로 작용함을 알 수 있다.

Coal ash is a by-product of the combustion of pulverized coal, and much of this is dumped in landfills. The disposal of coal ash is one of the major issues for environmental problems. In this paper, the effects of the kinds and replacement ratio of coal ash on the durabilities of concrete mixtures are investigated. Fine aggregate was replaced with coal ash(fly ash and bottom ash) in five different ratios, of 0%, 10%, 20%, 35%, and 50% by volume. Test results indicated that the compressive strength increased with the increase in fly ash percentage. The loss of compressive strength of bottom ash concrete mixes after immersion in sulphuric acid solution was less than in the control mix(BA0). In addition, the carbonation depth of fly ash concrete mixes was lower than the control mix(FA0).
