The overall objective of this cooperative Scientific Information Exchange Program is to determine the effects of certain operating parameters on the plasma generated by the 4 to 5 MW coal combustor in Swierk, Poland. These operating parameters included (1) coal type, (2) coal moisture content, (3) seed injection, (4) slag removal, (5) coal size distribution, (6) equivalence ratio and (7) NO/sub x/, CO and SO/sub x/ content in the exhaust gas. Results are reported. (WHK)
