Abstract:
Method for drying, crushing and distribution of solid fuel for a solid fuel boiler, for example a fluidized bed boiler. According to the invention moist fuel (9) is crushed and dried by intermixing gas and/or ash (13,14) in a unit (12). The fuel is set in motion, for example in a cyclone (15), together with gas (13), and is divided into several subflows (27-29) to be fed into the boiler at different points (4).
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for fuel preparation for example by milling and drying to produce a pulverous fuel supply are described. The apparatus includes a fuel preparation unit adapted to receive a mixture of fuel and a gas and to prepare the fuel for combustion in a pulverous state; an output conduit defining an output flow path for a mixture of pulverous fuel and gas from the fuel preparation unit; a phase separator disposed to receive the mixture from the output conduit and to separate the mixture into a gas phase comprising at least a major part of the gas from the mixture and a fuel phase comprising the pulverous fuel; a gas phase conduit defining a flow path for the gas phase from the separator; a heat exchanger preferably being a process fluid heat exchanger such as a feed water heat recovery heat exchanger fluidly connected to the gas phase conduit and adapted to receive and dry the gas phase. The method applies the principles embodied in the apparatus.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a method of milling a fuel for an oxy-fuel combustion burner (9), the method comprising: separating air into a hot nitrogen gas stream, having a temperature of at least 150°C and a purity of at least 98 mol-% nitrogen, and an oxygen gas stream; leading at least a part of the nitrogen gas stream to a fuel mill (2); milling the fuel by means of the fuel mill (2) in a nitrogen rich atmosphere formed by means of the nitrogen gas stream; leading the at least a part of the nitrogen gas stream away from the milled fuel; leading the oxygen gas stream to the oxy-fuel combustion burner (9); conveying the milled fuel to the oxy-fuel combustion burner (9); and burning the fuel, by means of the oxy-fuel combustion burner (9), in an oxygen rich atmosphere formed by means of the oxygen gas stream. The present disclosure further relates to a system for milling a fuel for an oxy-fuel combustion burner as well as to a power plant comprising such a system.
Abstract:
A process for energy recovery and transfer including: warming fresh air in a heat recovery and pressure control unit; feeding waste feed and the warm fresh air into a processor; reducing a moisture content of the waste feed by breaking the waste feed into a fuel powder in the warm fresh air in the processor; filtering contaminated air through an initial filter to remove the fuel powder from the contaminated air; pre-heating the contaminated air in the heat recovery and pressure control unit; raising the temperature of the pre-heated contaminated air in a chamber; passing the chamber discharge air through the heat recovery and pressure control unit to pre-heat contaminated air passing on to the chamber and to warm fresh air passing on to the processor; and filtering terminal air through a terminal filter to remove particles from the terminal air.

Abstract:
The subject mater herein relates to coal mills and, more particularly, inferential pulverized fuel flow sensing and manipulation within a coal mill. Various embodiments provide systems, methods, and software to manipulate a primary air flow rate and a coal feed rate into a coal mill to produce a target pulverized fuel flow. Some embodiments include sensing a differential pressure between two or more locations within a coal mill to estimate a recirculated load of coal at one or more stages within the coal mill.
Abstract:
Using oxygen-lean gas as the transport medium in which pulverized fuel solids are conveyed to the burner of a combustion system permits combustion at levels of combustion rate and NOx production under circumstances under which those levels would not be attainable if the transport medium were air.
Abstract:
A combustion burner which comprises a mixture nozzle (2) defining a mixed fluid flow passage, through which a mixed fluid (1) containing pulverized coal and air for conveyance flows toward a furnace (4), a secondary air flow passage, through which a secondary air (6) flows, a tertiary air flow passage, through which a tertiary air (9) for combustion flows, both air flow passages being provided to surround the mixture nozzle (2), and an air jet nozzle (24) provided in the neighbourhood of an outer periphery of a tip end of the mixture nozzle (2). Air (21) is jetted through the air jet nozzle (24) to be directed toward a center of the mixture nozzle (2), whereby a high temperature gas near the outer periphery of the tip end of the mixture nozzle (2) is induced into the mixed fluid (1) near the outer periphery of the tip end.
