A STUDY ON THE WAYS OF RAISING COMBUSTION EFFICIENCY AND INTENSITY OF COAL-WATER SLURRY

These Proceedings are in microfiche form. Coal-water slurries suffer a number of disadvantages if it is proposed to use them in place of oil fuel in existing boilers. These include a lower heat output from the furnace, the accumulation of ash, the inefficiency resulting from the presence of unburned carbon in the ash, and the need to preheat the air to a relatively high temperature. The authors discuss ways of overcoming these difficulties, including the use of a vertical compound precombuster, the use of special jets in the furnace, and the development of methods of using air at ambient temperatures.
