The general objective of the project is to investigate the combustion behavior of single and multiple Coal-Water Fuel particles burning at high temperature environments. Both uncatalyzed as well as catalyzed CWF drops with Calcium Magnesium Acetate (CMA) catalyst will be investigated. Emphasis will also be given in the effects of CMA on the sulfur capture during combustion. To help achieve these objectives the following project tasks were carried over this 6th three-month period: (1) calibration of the optical pyrometer, (2) production of pre-dried CWF agglomerates, and (3) preliminary data acquisition. 9 figs., 2 tabs.
