Combustion efficiency can be defined as a measurement of the quality of the fuel being burned is being utilized in the combustion process. This is different from the efficiency number produced on the analyzer, which is reflective of the total amount of heat available from the fuel minus the... Read More
Fly ash contents can be considered as a basis for optimal and stable boiler combustion control and fly ash quality control in power plants, especially the unburned carbon in fly ash. Various methods are used in predicting and monitoring of U.B.C. including: Lining Ash that is stored or deposited outside can... Read More
If unburnt carbon can be predicted upfront and the determinants adjusted accordingly, it could result in the following benefits. A. Reduction in U.B.C. Content CO emissions NOx emissions SNCR/ SCR ammonia consumption Auxiliary power consumption Water wall slagging and corrosion Electricity generating cost B. Increase in Ash disposal site life S.C.R. catalyst life boiler efficiency If unburnt carbon can be... Read More
What is fly ash? Fly ash is the finest of coal ash particles. It is called fly ash because it is transported from the combustion chamber by exhaust gases. Fly ash is the fine powder formed from the mineral matter in coal, consisting of the noncombustible matter in coal and... Read More
