Investigating the storage, handling and combustion characteristics of solvent refined coal. Final report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7327518
E-21 pulverizer (ball-and-race) testing and direct firing of a Stirling boiler are described. Objectives were to demonstrate (1) the suitability of commerical ball-and-race mills to pulverize solvent refined coal (SRC), and (2) the possibility for direct firing of pulverized SRC from a ball-and-race mill. The program was divided into four experimental tasks: mill preparation, mill testing, mill modification, and a direct firing demonstration. The results demonstrated the suitability of a commercial ball-and-race mill for pulverizing SRC after some modifications in speed and ball pressure and the feasibility of direct firing of pulverized SRC from a ball-and-race mill.
