Abstract

The experiments of the fly ash recycle combustion using Guizhou anthracite were carried out in a bench scale circulating fluidized bed (CFB) combustor. Effects of some key operating parameters such as recycle ash to coal mass ratio (Ca to S molar ratio), temperature, reactivation modeof fly ash, circulation rateand fluidization velocity on the desulfurization efficiency were intensively investigated. It is shown that thelimestone utilization efficiency could be improved about 30% with the following operating conditions: the mass ratio of fly ash (reactivated by water and dried at 90°C) to coal was 0.45, the furnace temperature was 880°C, the water to ash mass ratio was 4.5% (the water-to-calcium molar ratio was 0.55) and circulation rate was 18.
