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 wit Calcium Magnesium Acetate (CMA) catalyst will be studied. 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 8th three-month period. Project Tasks: Work on two major tasks was conducted over this period: (1) Trouble-sooting of the pyrometer calibration equipment and then re-calibrating the pyrometer with two different NIST lamps. (2) Production and characterization of CaO particles derived from Calcium Magnesium Acetate. These particles are very promising SO{sub 2} sorbents. 10 figs.
