Low-rank coal properties, upgrading and utilization for improving the fuel flexibility of advanced power plants
Original language description
The chapter provides a general overview of relatively new but not commonly used techniques of low-rank coal preparation and upgrading. Washing results in reductions in the amounts of mineral matter present, including a proportion of trace elements and sulphur. Drying reduces the moisture content, and hence increases the heating value. Briquetting improves the combustion characteristics and facilitates the inclusion of additives which will capture the sulphur present. All the processes contribute to theincrease in heating value of the coal and improve the fuel consistency, resulting in more efficient and controllable combustion.
