Ashfusion furnace system. MTI''s LECO ashfusion furnace system is used to measure ashfusion temperatures and slagflow behavior under controlled atmospheres. Ashfusion temperatures. MTI measures four conventional ashfusion temperatures (AFTs) determined under oxidizing or reducing conditions (ASTM standard D1857).
Apr 05, 2017· 5EAF4115 Ash Fusion Determinator is used to determine ash cone deformation temperatures in coal ash, coke ash and mold powders automatically, which are critical to the boiler functioning properly ...
Sep 09, 2014· In the present investigation, few Indonesian coal samples have been selected to find out the direct effect of ash chemical composition and ash fusion temperatures. Experimental: The composition of several coal ashes were determine by ASTM D634909 method using Perkin Elmers Optima 700 DV, ICPOES. The sample digestion was carried out in a ...
If the ash fusion temperature is low say 1000 degree celsius it may be helpful for binding of coal and coke. Higher ash fusion temperature also should help in binding whish is arequirement for ...
relationship to coal ash chemistry, melting slagging properties, and fusion temperature. There are not distinct melting points for coal ash like with ice or other pure compounds, s o when melting is mentioned it is used to represent a decrease in viscosity, rather than a melting point. When coal ash melts it occurs on both a large scale and a
The elevated temperatures of the gas leaving the furnace often results in ash entering the convection passes that is above its fusion temperature. Thus this ash will deposit on the superheat and reheat surfaces and further reduce the ability of the furnace to make steam conditions.
Anthracite coal, mined from the planet''s oldest geological formations, has spent the longest time underground. The coal has been subjected to the most pressure and heat, making it the most compressed and hardest coal available. Hard coal contains greater potential to produce heat energy than softer, geologically "newer" coal.
The extent of coal ash slag penetration and refractory brick dissolution depends on the slag viscosity, the gasification temperature, and the composition of slag and bricks. We measured the viscosity of several synthetic coal ash slags with a hightemperature rotary viscometer and their ash fusion temperatures through optical image analysis.
Bituminous coal can be categorized further by the level of volatile matter; it contains highvolatile A, B, and C, mediumvolatile, and lowvolatile. Volatile matter includes any material that is liberated from the coal at high temperatures. In the case of coal, the volatile matter may include sulfur and hydrocarbons.
Apr 08, 2011· Re: Ash fusion temperature. Dear, As per my understanding the higher the ash fusion temperatures better will be its performance in terms of fouling and slagging in power plant boiler tubes. High alkali containing fly ashes generally do have low ash fusion coal which is largely used in power plants.
Jul 24, 2017· Coal Slags and Ash Fusion Temperatures The Ash Fusion Temperature, AFT, test became popular in the 1920''s as a way to judge clinkering .
Coal sampling and analysis standards 8 Preparation of coal ash 58 Major and minor elements 59 Trace elements 61 Miscellaneous analysis 64 Chlorine 64 Mercury 65 Mineral matter in coal 66 Ash fusibility 66 Coal
Specific ashfusion temperatures are determined in the laboratory by observing the temperatures at which successive characteristic stages of fusion occur in a specimen of ash when heated in a furnace under specified conditions. These temperatures are often used as indicators of the clinkering potential of coals during hightemperature processing.
Ash Fusibility. Fusion temperatures provide an indication of the temperature range over which portions of the ash will be a molten fluid or semimolten, plastic state. High fusion temperatures indicate that ash released in the furnace will cool quickly to a nonsticky state resulting minimal potential for slagging.
The coal ash fusion at a low temperature, encourages the formation of a clinker that gathers around the heat transfer pipes and thereby corrodes the furnace components. It is wellknown that the ash clinkering may lead to channel burning, pressure drop, and an unstable gasifier operation (Van Dyk et al.
Bruce G. Miller, in Clean Coal Engineering Technology, 2011. Ash Fusion. The ash fusion temperature is a measure of when the ash will melt and transform from a solid to liquid state. This temperature is an important parameter for the design and operation of gasification systems, for those that operate below the ash fusion temperature so as not to incur fusion, sintering, or clinkering of the ...
Fuels with lower ash fusion temperatures require more precise combustion tuning and increased sootblowing to mitigate slag deposits. Let''s take a look at the coal ash fusion D1857 analysis shown ...
Aug 17, 2017· There are several coal boilers and gasifiers that operate with a flame temperature over the melting or fluid properties of the coal ash, commonly called ash fusion temperature, AFT.
forms of sulfur, ashfusion temperatures, freeswelling index, and real specificgravity determinations for 12 coal samples from ia and West ia_____ 10 3. Major and minor oxide and traceelement composition of the laboratory ash of 12 coal samples from ia and West ia_____ 16
Mar 28, 2018· Ash fusion temperatures are determined by viewing a molded specimen of the coal ash through an observation window in a hightemperature furnace. The ash, in the form of a cone, pyramid or cube, is heated steadily past 1000 °C to as high a temperat...
Coal Specifications. We exclusively trade thermal coal of Indonesian origin and offer three main calorific values – GAR 4200 kcal/kg, NAR 4700 kcal/kg and NAR 5500 kcal/kg. The table below indicates the typical specifications of each category of coal under the .
Ash fusion, also called fusibility, is a test to determine how the ash residue remaining from combustion of a coal will react in a furnace or boiler. In this test, coal ash is put into conical molds as specified in ASTM method D185704 guidelines and procedures (American Society .
ash of high meltingpoints would not increase the ash fusion temperatures above a certain blending ratio. The significant variation in the chemistry and mineralogy of the ash as a result of coal blending and mineralogical interactions was the main reason for the changes to the ash sintering and fusion .
CORRELATING THE SLAGGING OF A UTILITY BOILER WITH COAL CHARACTERISTICS Rod Hatt Coal Combustion, Inc. Versailles, KY ABSTRACT This paper will describe how a utility was able to correlate intermittent slagging problems a boiler was experiencing with coal ash chemistry. The coal ash fusion temperatures alone were not sufficient to be
