In this study, the characteristics of the cement mortar replaced with fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag generated during circulating fluidized bed combustion method and pulverized coal combustion process were investigated. As a result of the study, when mixed with circulating fluidized bed combustor fly ash and pulverized coal combustion fly ash, it is advantageous not only in terms of strength development but also in terms of durability. The circulating fluidized bed combustor fly ash contributes to the improvement of initial reactivity, and the pulverized coal combustion fly ash is involved in long-term strength development through pozzolanic reaction. Therefore, it can be seen that the mixed use of circulating fluidized bed combustor fly ash and pulverized coal combustion fly ash acts as a complementary factor for cement mortar substituted with ground granulated blast furnace slag.

Increasing environmental pressures to reduce NOx emission are being placed on coal-fired boilers. To meet the environmental requirements, Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction Co., Ltd.(Doosan) has developed low NOx pulverized coal burner. Low NOx pulverized coal burner has already delivered, and it's combustion performance was evaluated to the NOx and Unburned Carbon(UBC) during the commissioning tests. The test results are shown that the strong relationship is existed between NOx and OFA flow rate, and also fuel-N fraction of coal has effected on NOx emission.

The aims of this research were to evaluate effects of biomass co-firing to pulverized coal power plants and the variation of co-firing ratios on the plant efficiency related to power consumption of auxiliary system and flue gas characteristics such as production and component by process simulation based on the existing pulverized coal power plant. In this study, four kinds of biomass are selected as renewable fuel candidates for co-firing: wood pellet(WP), palm kernel shell(PKS), empty fruit bunch(EFB) and walnut shell(WS). Process simulation for various biomass fuels and co-firing ratios was performed using a commercial software. Gas side including combustion system and flue gas treatment system was considering with combination of water and steam side which contains turbines, condenser, feed water heaters and pumps. As a result, walnut shell might be the most suitable as co-firing fuel among four biomass since when 10% of walnut shell was co-fired with 90% of coal on thermal basis, flue gas production and power consumption of auxiliary systems were the smallest than those of other biomass co-firing while net plant efficiency was relatively higher than those of other biomass co-firing. However, with increasing walnut shell co-firing ratios, boiler efficiency and net plant efficiency were expected to decrease rather than coal combustion without biomass co-firing.

The structure and combustion characteristics, and the economic feasibility of the circulating fluidized bed combustion(CFBC) boiler using low grade coal were introduced. The economic feasibility is evaluated by comparing a 500 MW CFBC boiler power plant using low grade coal and a pulverized combustion boiler power plant with high grade coal. As the result of the evaluation, the pulverized coal combustion boiler power plant has an internal rate of return of 12.95%, 1,395.9 billion Korean won of net present value, and 6.26 years of payback period. On the other hand, CFBC boiler power plant has an internal rate of return of 13.54%, 1,704.3 billion Korean won of net present value, and 6.02 years payback period. Therefore, the CFBC boiler power plant has better feasibility in all aspects, as 0.59% higher of internal rate of return, 308.4 billion Korean won of higher net present value and 0.24 year of shorter payback period.

A numerical study on swirling pulverized coal combustion in an axisymmetric enclosure is carried out by applying the 2-phase weighted sum of gray gases model (WSGGM) approach with the discrete ordinate method (DOM) to model the radiative heat transfer equation. In the radiative transfer equation, the same polynomial equation and coefficients for weighting factors as those for gas are adopted for the coal/char particles as a function of partial pressure and particle temperature. The Eulerian balance equations for mass, momentum, energy, and species mass fractions are adopted with the standard and RNG k-${\varepsilon}$ turbulence model, whereas the Lagrangian approach is used for the particulate phase. The eddy-dissipation model is employed for the reaction rate for gaseous mixture, and the single-step and two-step first-order reaction model for the devolatilization process for coal. Special attention is given to establish the thermal boundary conditions on radiative transfer equation By comparing the numerical results with experimental ones, the radiation model used here is confirmed and found to provide an alternative for simulating the radiative transfer.

In a view of capturing $CO_2$ as a greenhouse gas, an experimental study was conducted on the combustion characteristics of pulverized coal in $O_2$/$CO_2$ environment using TGA/DSC and DTF facilities. The effects of gas composition and concentration on the processes of devolatilization and char burning experienced by coal particles in combustion furnace and on the concentration of products such as $CO_2$, CO and $NO_x$ were observed using TGA/DSC and DTF respectively. As results, it were found that the rate of devolitilation is nearly independent on the $O_2$ concentration if it is over 20% but the char burning rate is a sensitive function of $O_2$ percent, and the two rates can be controlled by $O_2$ concentration in order to be similar with those of air combustion case. It was also found that high concentration $CO_2$ can be captured by oxy-coal combustion and high concentration of CO and low value of $NO_x$ are exhausted in that case. Additionally, NO reducing reaction by CO with char as catalyst was observed and a meaningful results were obtained.

The electrostatic precipitation characteristics of two kinds of fly ashes, one derived from a fluidized bed combustor(FBC), the other from a pulverized coal(PC) fired furnace, have been studied on a pilot plant. Experiments have been carried out to enhance the collection efficiency while changing the operating conditions for two kinds of coal ashes, respectively. It has been shown that collection efficiency is affected by many factors such as shape of the ashes, dust contents, humidity, and temperature, etc. Experimantal results showed that collection efficiency of the FBC ashes was higher than that of the PC fly ash in spite of the small size of the FBC ashes. The experimetal results have been applied to the collection efficiency equations to show that the modified Deutsch equation was well agreed with experiment results if modification parameter k was set to 0.6 for the fluidized bed fly ashes and to 0.43 for the pulverized coal fly ashes.

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.

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.
