The general objective of the project is to investigate the combustion behavior of single and multiple Coal-Water Fuel (CWF) particles burning at high temperature environments. Both uncatalyzed as well as catalyzed CWF drops with Calcium Magnesium Acetate (CMA) catalyst will be studied. Emphasis will also be given in the effects of CMA on the sulfur capture during combustion. Over this period work concentrated in producing CWF agglomerates from pulverized-grain coal ({approx} 40{mu}m) and studying their pyrolysis and combustion behavior. Ash residues were also captured and examined. These results will serve as a basis for comparison with those obtained earlier for CWF with a micronized-grain coal ({approx} 3.5{mu}m).
