Combustion of lignite with limestone, co-combustion of lignite with limestone and wood, and combustion of wood were performed in a circulating fluidised bed in 7 different combustion regimes. The in organic matter composition and properties of all input and output materials were characterized. For each com bustion regime the material streams and the boiler outputs were calculated. The total inorganic mass and the mass of selected trace elements in fuels (Cl, Zn, As, Se, Hg, and Pb) were based on the output of a 1 GW circulating fluidised-bed boiler; additionally, the concen trations of volatile elements (As, Se, Hg) in fly ash (FA) were evaluated in relation to the mass of FA. Element (Cl, Zn, As, Se, Hg, and Pb) enrichment in FA compared with BA was related to the ratio R between the co mbusted mass of organic wood wastes and total combusted fuel. Additionally, the unburned carbon in bottom ash (BA) and fly ash (FA) was determined, and sel ected elements were studied in unburned materials separated from BA. The results show that combustion of wood and/or co-combustion of lignite with wood waste brings about significant environmental benefits., Zdeněk Klika, Lucie Bartoňová and Jana Serenčíšová., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy
Combustion of coal with limestone (a) and co-combustion of coal with limestone with wood, sewage sludge, soap and PTP (b) were performed in CFB. Inorganic matter composition and properties of all input materials were characterized. For this, chemical and coal petrography analyses of solid samples as well as their leaching tests, unburned carbon, and other properties were determined. There are not striking differences in composition of bottom and fly ashes from combustion/co-combustion data. In fly ash samples higher concentrations of Hg (about 2 ppm), As (about 800 ppm) and chlorine (about 400 ppm) are present than they are in bottom ash (0.002 ppm Hg, 250 ppm As, and 220 ppm Cl). Also relating concentrations of above elements determined in emissions are very similar for combustion/co-combustion regimes (about 0.010 mg.m-3 Hg, 0.027 mg.m-3 As and 24 mg.m-3 Cl). Content of unburned carbon in BA is below 2 wt.% and in FA below 0.6 wt.% in all combustion/co-combustion data. In FA samples the concentration of Hg, As, Se, etc. increases with increasing unburned carbon content, i.e. with decreasing grain size of FA. No significant differences in composition of emissions, bottom and fly ashes as well as in composition of water leachates were found from the combustion regimes I, II, III and IV., Martin Stach, Zdeněk Klika, Martina Nováčková and Václav Roubíček., and Obsahuje bibliografii
