This study aimed to develop an effective dual-fuel burner with advanced technologies to improve performance and reduce emissions. Through experiments and modeling, optimal operating conditions were identified to minimize NOx emissions and enhance combustion efficiency. Co-firing natural gas proved to be a beneficial approach for reducing NOx emissions and improving combustion characteristics.
The objective of this study was to develop and design an effective state-of-the-art dual-fuel pulverized coal (PC)-natural gas (NG) burner that incorporates fuel-air staging, flow swirling, preheating, and cofiring technologies to increase performance and minimize emissions. Experimental and numerical modeling were performed to study the effect of different operating conditions, excess air ratio, fuel staging, and NG blending. An optimal experimental design using a response surface methodology was adopted to examine the significance of the operating parameters. Analysis of variance indicates that the regression equation can correctly represent the responses (p-value < 0.0001). It is also indicated that the excess air ratio and percentage of preheated PC have significant effects on NOx emissions (p < 0.005). The optimal conditions were determined to include an excess air ratio of 1.2 and 50% PC injection into the preheating stream. Meeting these conditions, the predicted average NOx emission was 430 +/- 3.1 ppm and the average measured NOx emission 436 +/- 11.2 ppm, with 6% O-2. Moreover, further reduction of NOx emission by up to 50% highlights the beneficial approach of NG co-firing. This design allows intensifying of recirculation and a mixture of fuels and oxidizers appropriate for improving the combustion characteristics significantly. (C) 2021 Elsevier Ltd.
