The spherical artificial aggregates (AAs) with a diameter of 8 mm, which contains fly ashes discharged from the fluidized bed combustion in a thermal power plant and clay were manufactured by direct sintering method at $1050{\sim}1250^{\circ}C$ for 10 minutes. The effect of fly ash contents on the bloating phenomenon in the AAs was analyzed. The AAs containing fly ash of the amount under 50 wt% showed the black-coring and bloating phenomena. The AAs containing fly ash of the amount over 5Owt%, however, the specific gravity was increased and the color of specimens fully changed to black. These color change phenomena were caused from the formation of FeO by the reduction reaction of almost $Fe_2O_3$ component by the excessive reducing atmosphere formed simultaneously with the rapid emission of the gases generated from the high contents of unburned carbon of with increasing the added fly ash amount. Specific gravity was decreased as fly ash contents increased in the case of sintering at the same temperature condition. Water absorption of all specimens except of the specimens containing 10 wt% fly ashes decreased with increasing sintering temperature. These were because a liquid phase was formed as the increasing the sintering temperature. In the case of the specimens manufactured in this study containing fly ashes discharged from the fluidized bed combustor in a the thermal power plant and 10~90 wt% of clay, the specific gravity was 0.9~1.8 and the water absorptivity was 8~60%, therefore it is considered that those results can be applied to the light or heavy aggregates.

The advantage of CFBC(Circulating fluidized bed combustor) is that it can apply to various fuel sources including the lower rank fuel and remove SOx by means of direct supply of limestone to the combustor without additional desulfation facility. In this paper, we denote characteristics of fly and bed ash to reuse finer limestone usually abandoned(used spec[Coarse LS] 0.1mm under 25%, new spec[Fine LS] 0.1mm under 50%). According to the results, the chemical composition of fly ash was as follows; $SiO_2\;40.8%,\;Al_2O_3\;31.9%,\;CaO\;10.7%,\;K_2O\;4.46%$ in the case of coarse limestone and $SiO_2\;41.1%,\;Al_2O_3\;31.3%,\;CaO\;10.9%,\;K_2O\;4.66%$ in the case of fine limestone. The chemical composition of bed ash was as follows; $SiO_2\;54.2%,\;Al_2O_3\;33.1%,\;CaO\;1.56%,\;K_2O\;4.34%$ in the case of coarse limestone and $SiO_2\;53.8%,\;Al_2O_3\;32.6%,\;CaO\;2.21%,\;K_2O\;4.45%$ in the case of fine limestone. It showed that there was no significant change in chemical composition. And it is conformed that there was no significant change in particle size and shapes.

Circulating Fluidized Bed Combustor(CFBC) has been used for the incineration of waste sewage sludge and for the power generation. In this study hydrodynamic characteristics of two phase flow have been studied in a riser section of CFBC. A lab-scale riser is designed and SiC (Geldart type B) is used for solid particles. Experiments are performed by controlling the fluidization parameters including superficial velocity and secondary air to primary air ratio for determination of solid holdup profiles in the riser. Superficial velocities of each fluidization regime are well agreed with results predicted by a theoretical model. The results show that the axial solid holdup distributions calculated by measuring differential static pressures in the riser are found to show a basic profile described by a simple exponential function. Our flow regime during experiments mainly belongs to fast fluidization regime for particle size of 300${\mu}m$. As the SA/PA ratio increases, solid holdup in the lower dense region of the riser increases.

Natural gas combustion characteristics of mass produced oxygen carrier particles were investigated in a batch type bubbling fluidized bed reactor. Five particles, NiO/bentonite, OCN601-650, OCN702-1100, OCN703-950, OCN703-1100 were used as oxygen carrier particles. Natural gas and air were used as reactants for reduction and oxidation, respectively. During reduction reaction, high fuel conversion and high $CO_2$ selectivity were achieved for most of oxygen carriers. During oxidation, NO emission was very low. These results indicate that inherent $CO_2$ separation and low NOx combustion are feasible for the natural gas fueled chemical-looping combustion system. Among the five oxygen carriers, OCN703-1100 particle was selected as the best candidate for demonstration of long-term operation in large-scale chemical-looping combustor from the viewpoints of fuel conversion, $CO_2$ selectivity, $CH_4$ concentration, and CO concentration.

1980년대 중반이후 화력발전소용으로 순환유동층 연소로(Circulating fluidized bed combustor : CFBC)가 많이 건설되고 있다. 이는 기존의 고정층 연소로보다 효율면에서 좋고, 차지하는 부피는 훨씬 적기 때문이다. 순환유동층의 층물질로 사용되는 모래, 석탄회, 석회석 등은 순환하는 입도, 비산유출되는 회재(fly ash)와 하부로 배출되는 회재(bottom ash)로 나누어진다. 주입되는 석탄 및 석회석의 입도는 입자-입자, 입자-연소로의 마모(attrition), 입자의 깨짐(fragmentation), 입자의 축소(shrinking) 등에 의해서 변화하게 된다.(중략)

Waste fuels, which originate from different sources, have unique combustion characteristics. The characteristics should be considered in applying FBC(fluidized bed combustor) technology to those fuels. The effects of fuel properties and operating conditions on FBC reactivity were investigated by means of carbon based parameter called mean carbon conversion time, rate of carbon conversion, fraction of carbon conversion and carbon recovery. And the basic physical and chemical mechanisms taking place in a fluidized bed were summarized. Major parameters in designing and operating FBC were evaluated in terms of the fuel properties and the combustion environment.

Diversification of combustion fuel is the demands of the times and biomass is the most attractive option since it can contribute to the prevention of global warming at the same time. Due to the national renewable obligation, generally called Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS), many power companies are considering direct combustion of biomass or co-firing with coal. In order to use biomass as a fuel, informations of its combustion characteristics and ash related problems should be investigated. In this study, combustion performance of biomass was assessed in a bubbling fluidized bed combustor, and ash characteristics of various biomass fuels were studied with standard test method.

Granulation procedure was carried out in a 0.109m I. D., 1.8m height fluidized bed coal combustor of the multi-sized particles. The domestic anthracite with heating value 3240kcal/kg was used. Granulation of fine coal particles and fluidizing characteristics were investigated by the pressure fluctuation properties such as mean pressure, standard deviation of pressure fluctuation and power spectrum distribution. Defluidization state and granulation mechanism were also studied by the various analysis. It was found that the conversion efficiency in the elutriated stream was increased by the coalescence of fine coal particles. Defluidization and pressure fluctuation properties were interrelated and this result was indication of the capabilities of pressure fluctuation properties analysis in the diagnostics of fluidizing state.

가압유동층연소로(bed dia. 0.17m, freeboard dia. 0.25, total height 5m)에서 국내무연탄을 연소시켜 이에 대한 탈황특성을 고찰하였다. 실험은 압력($2{\sim}6atm$), 요동층온도(($850{\sim}950^{\circ}C$), 과잉공기(10, 20, 30,%)등의 조건과, 탈황을 위한 Ca/S몰비(($0.8{\sim}4.8$)가 탈황특성에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. 결과적으로, 본 연구의 실험범위에서 연소효율은 $80{\sim}99%$를 보였고, 연소온도, 압력 그리고 과잉공기가 증가 할수록 증가하였다. 배가스중의 $SO_2$배출농도는 압력, Ca/S몰비가 증가함에 따라 감소하였다. 탈황율은 상압에서 층(bed)온도의 증가에 따라 감소하였다. 운전압력이 증가함에 따라 탈황율의 감소폭이 둔화되었다. 과잉공기가 증가함에 따라 탈황율은 증가하는 경향을 나타냈다. 각각의 운전압력에서 과잉공기의 증가에 따라 약 10%의 증가폭을 보였다. 국내무연탄을 연소하는 경우 운전압력 4atm일 때 Ca/S몰비는 4이상 주입하여야 하고, 6atm일 때 Ca/S 몰비가 2.5이상주입하여야 150ppm이하를 보여 배출규제치를 만족하는 것을 보였다.
