Thermogravimetric analysis of the co-combustion of the blends with high ash coal and waste tyres

Incineration methods are becoming increasingly important from the view point of the need to minimize the environmental impact of waste tyre disposal. Combustion of waste tyre, one high ash coal and tyre-coal blends with 10, 30 and 50% waste tyre were investigated by means of thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) carried out at 20 K min⁻¹ in the temperature range from ambient temperature to 1273 K. And effects of the mixed proportion between coal and waste tyre on the combustion process, ignition and burnout characteristics were also studied. The results indicate that the combustion of waste tyre is controlled by the emission of volatile matter, the regions are more complex for waste tyre (three or more peaks) than for coal (one peak). Also as compared with the case of burning only high ash coal, the incorporation of waste tyre can improve the combustion characteristics of high ash coal, especially the ignition performance and the peak weight loss compared with the separate burning of waste tyre and coal. Moreover, comparisons of the TG-DTG profiles between experimental and calculational results, it is indicate that there is a comparatively important difference, the co-combustion characteristics is the coupling effect between waste tyre and coal. The data resulting also showed that the co-combustion of waste tyre and low quanlitied coal as fuel is feasible.     

CFB煤燃烧/热解双反应器中热解室对立管内气固流动特性的影响

考察了循环流化床煤燃烧/热解双反应器系统中热解室的存在对立管内的压力分布及气固流动状况的影响。提升管的内径100 mm、高6 m，立管的内径44 mm、高3 m，热解室的截面积200 mm×200 mm、高770 mm。结果表明，随着提升管内表观气速Ur的增加，有无热解室立管内均为负压差流动，负压差梯度随着Ur的增加而减小。有热解室时，热解室内要保持一定的料位高度，整个立管内固体颗粒的流动为负压差移动床流动；没有热解室时，立管内为稀相流动和移动床流动同时存在，立管内平衡料柱高度随Ur的增加而升高。随着循环量Gs的增加，两种类型的立管内负压差梯度均随之增大，也存在着流动形态的差别。循环量Gs的增加会引起立管内平衡料柱高度的降低。立管内气固相对滑移速度也随着循环量Gs的增加而增大。     

Pyrolysis and TG Analysis of Shivee Ovoo Coal from Mongolia

The coal sample of the Shivee Ovoo deposits has been non-isothermally pyrolysed in a thermogravimetric analyser to determine the influence of temperature, heating rate and purge gas employed on the thermal degradation of the sample. The heating rates investigated in the TG were 10–50 K min^–1 to final temperature of 1000°C. N₂or CO₂ were employed as well as type of purge gas on the process of thermal degradation of the coal sample. The coal was also investigated in a fixed bed reactor to determine the influence of temperature and heating rate of the pyrolysis on the yield of products and composition of the gases evolved. The main gases produced were H₂, CH₄, C₂H₂, C₂H₄, C₂H₆, C₃H₆ and C₃H₈ and also minor concentrations of other gases. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

Xylanolytic enzyme production by anAspergillus niger isolate

Production of xylanolytic enzymes by anAspergillus niger CCMI 850 isolate was investigated in batch cultures. The effect of the composition of a fermentation medium that did not include chemical inducers, on β-xylanase, β-xylosidase, α-l-arabinofuranosidase, and total cellulase activity was studied. With 4% xylan as the carbon source, about 65 U/mL of β-xylanase was obtained, whereas the total cellulase activity was undetectable, under the specified conditions. This β-xylanase activity represents the highest reported for a wild-type strain ofA. niger. The effect of pH and temperature on the activity of β-xylanase was studied. Partial characterization of the β-xylanase showed that with insoluble birchwood as substrate theK _m andV _max were 0.3 mM and 19 μmol/min, respectively. Aspects of using the crude β-xylanase preparation for applications in the pulp and paper industry were discussed.     

煤—焦炉气共热解特性的研究：温度的影响

利用高压热天平和１０ｇ固定床反应器考察了温度对兖州烟煤与焦炉气共热解的失重行为、热解产物分布以及脱硫脱氮的影响。随热解温度升高共热解在３００～５５０℃和６００～７００℃间出现明显失重峰。煤焦炉气共热解与加氢热解失重行为相似，均发生热分解反应和加氢反应。在实验温度范围（４５０～６５０℃）内，温度升高有利于提高焦油收率、热解水含量以及脱硫脱氮率，同时半焦收率降低。相同热解条件（压力为３ＭＰａ，终温为６５０℃）下，与煤在氮气气氛下热解相比，煤焦炉气共热解和加氢热解所得半焦收率均降低，焦油收率、热解水及脱硫脱氮率明显增加。与相同总压的加氢热解相比，煤焦炉气共热解半焦和热解水收率增加，焦油收率降低，脱硫率相当且脱氮率降低     

金属离子在煤界面吸附对煤成浆性的影响

本文研究了六种金属离子在三种煤表面的吸附规律，研究结果表明：铜离子能够改善煤的制浆效果，即铜离子加入煤浆中，分散剂的用量降低５０％，煤浆浓度提高；钙、镁、钴、锌离子对煤的成浆性不利的原因是它们不能有效地被吸附到煤表面，游离的金属离子和分散剂发生反应，使得吸附到煤表面的分散剂相对减少，煤的成浆性变差。     

水煤浆添加剂与煤之间的相互作用规律研究 Ⅰ. 复合煤颗粒间的相互作用对水煤浆流变性的影响

使用12种不同分散剂对14种不同变质程度的煤进行了成浆性实验，分析了182个水煤浆(CWS)样品的流变性。结果表明，低变质程度和高灰煤浆多呈屈服假塑性，煤的性质起主导作用；变质程度高且灰分较低煤浆的流变性，主要依赖于分散剂的结构与性质；分子结构单元立体空间效应大，疏水基团与亲水基团呈立体间隔分布的分散剂，易形成屈服假塑性CWS；分子线度长，亲水基团与疏水基团呈线性间隔分布的分散剂，易形成胀塑性CWS。复合煤粒间的相互作用方式是决定CWS流变特性的关键。
