The flue gas pre-drying of lignite produces a moisture rich dryer exhaust gas which can be further cooled to recover the waste heat and water vapor. An environmental friendly power system is investigated in the present work, which integrates the lignite flue gas pre-drying system with an organic Rankine cycle (ORC) to utilize the waste heat to generate power and capture the condensed water. Simulation models of the integrated system are developed, incorporating thermodynamic and economic evaluation indicators. The optimal energy and exergy efficiencies of the ORC system are calculated to be 3.10% and 24.57%, respectively, for an evaporation temperature of 51 °C when R245fa is used as the working fluid. Accordingly, the ORC power output is 3.61 MW and the absolute plant efficiency improvement is 0.27% points. Moreover, 55.17% of the water vapor can be recovered. The economic performance significantly relies on the specific investment cost of ORC and the electricity selling price. Typically, the break-even points of the specific investment cost are 2300 €/kW and 3700 €/kW when electricity selling prices are 0.05 €/kWh and 0.08 €/kWh, respectively.

Coal chemical properties show conspicuous impacts on its reactivity and thermal conversion. Nevertheless, the quantitative analysis of coal property indice in China is insufficient. Here, we quantitatively analyzed the correlations of various chemical properties of coals from thousands of data. Noteworthy variations were captured with some quantified expressions between coal properties obtained.

Local hydrodynamics in the riser of an external loop airlift reactor (EL-ALR) are identified and the performances of three drag models are evaluated in computational fluid dynamics simulation. The simulation results show that the Schiller-Naumann drag model underestimated the local gas holdup at lower superficial gas velocity whereas the Tomiyama drag model overestimated that at higher superficial gas velocity. By contrast, the dual-bubble-size (DBS)-local drag model gave more reasonable radial and axial distri-butions of gas holdup in all cases. The reason is that the DBS-local drag model gave correct values of the lumped parameter, i,e., the ratio of the drag coefficient to bubble diameter, for varying operating conditions and radial positions. This ratio is reasonably expected to decrease with increasing superficial gas velocity and be smaller in the center and larger near the wall. Only the DBS-local drag model correctly reproduced these trends. The radial profiles of the axial velocity of the liquid and gas predicted by the DBS-local model also agreed well with experimental data.

The influences of operating conditions, such as excess air ratio and SOFA arrangement, on temperature distributions, species distributions, NO x emissions and burnout of a tangentially-fired utility boiler using bituminous and blended coal were investigated by numerical approach in the present study. The simulation results show that the fuel type exhibits certain effect on the temperature distributions and the NO x emissions. Moreover, higher excess air ratio could restrain the CO formation but promote NO x emission. The temperature and the species distributions are highly related to the SOFA arrangement. In addition, SOFA technology is still an effective approach to control the NO x emissions during blended coal combustion, while the disadvantageous effect on char burnout should be considered.

Oxy-fuel combustion is recognized as one of the most promising CO 2 capture technologies. Under oxy-fuel combustion, the concentrations of CO 2 and H 2 O are much higher, result in different temperature profiles and heat transfer properties. In this study, a modified computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model-was developed for a 600 MW tangentially-fired boiler. Different oxygen volume fractions and two flue gas recycle modes (dry recycle and wet recycle) were numerically investigated, focusing on the properties of combustion and heat transfer. The results indicate the peak temperature in the burner zone decreases in oxy-fuel combustion, because of the high heat capacity and chemical reactivity of CO 2 . Compared with air-fired combustion, similar total heat transfer rate in furnace can be achieved at 27.0% and 28.3% of oxygen volume fraction for wet and dry recycle. These findings indicate retrofitting an existing boiler with oxy-fuel combustion technology is entirely feasible.

The ash-related issues due to the high-alkali characteristic are still unresolved during utilization of biomass and Zhundong coal. Here, the correlations of several chemical properties of high-alkali solid fuels were investigated. The distributions of ash compositions in various biomass exhibit obvious diversity, while the distribution of K 2 O content within wheat and corn straws are the most scattered. The ash content in biomass shows a decrease tendency with the increase of carbon content. Zhundong coals generally have medium but close ash fusion points despite of quite different ash compositions sometimes.
