This report discusses the development of modelling and prediction methods for estimating and minimising the level of NOx production during the combustion of pulverised coal. Current approaches include the use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD), kinetic and chemical engineering models, quantitative and empirical relationships and artificial intelligence methods. Applications of the CFD-based modelling approaches for designing new plants or modifying existing ones as well as for the simulation of pilot-scale burners and full-scale boilers are detailed. The current capabilities and limitations of CFD for accurately predicting levels of NOx production during coal combustion are also discussed.

Coal blending for power stations

IEACR/81 - ISBN: 92-9029-256-3

Blending of coals of different types at pulverised coal-fired power stations is becoming increasingly common as electric utilities attempt to save costs, meet SO 2 emission limits and improve the combustion behaviou... More...

Coal specifications - impact on power station performance

IEACR/52 - ISBN: 92-9029-210-5

This report examines the impacts of coal properties on power station performance. As most of the coal used to generate electricity is consumed as pulverised fuel, the focus of the report is on performance in pulverised fuel (... More...

Nitrogen in coal

IEAPER/08 - ISBN: 92-9029-230-X

Literature on nitrogen in coal is reviewed. Nitrogen is probably the least studied of the principal elements in coal, but has recently gained more attention. Except in rare cases, the nitrogen present in coal is bound into th... More...

How coal properties influence emissions

CCC/28 - ISBN: 92-9029-338-1

This report examines the influence of coal properties on the emission of pollutants to the atmosphere. To illustrate this, four pollutants are considered. They are: sulphur oxides, nitrogen oxides, particulates, and trace ele... More...

Switching to cheaper coals for power generation

CCC/01 - ISBN: 92-9029-301-2

Since the fuel represents 60-80% of a power plant's operating costs, significant savings might be made by firing cheaper coals. These coals are usually outside the fuel specification that would normally be used. Problems may ... More...
