Thermogravimetric Analysis on the Combustion Characteristics for Blended Coals

  • Conference paper
Challenges of Power Engineering and Environment

Abstract

Thermogravimetric analysis have been applied to study the combustion characteristics for blended coals. The process of the combustion was divided into two stages and the mean activation energy was used to value the overall process of the combustion. This experiment analysed the ignition and burnout with the index S, which provided the instruction for the boiler’s operation.
