Foam geopoymers were prepared with different amounts of foam agent and different Si O2/Al2O3 molar ratios of 3.1, 3.4, and 3.8. The mechanical, thermo-physical properties and microstructure of the foam geopolymers before and after exposure to elevated temperature of 800, 1000, and 1200 ℃ were investigated. The specimen with Si O2/Al2O3 molar ratio of 3.8 exhibits the highest compressive strength, better microstructure and dimension stability before and after firing. Carnegeite, nepheline, and zeolite crystalline phases appearing after exposure may contribute to the good post-exposure strength. Low weight foam geopolymer using CFA can increase strength and maintain higher stability as high as 1000 ℃.展开更多

Coal fly ash can be converted to value-added products if unburned carbon is reduced to less than 2.5%. However, most of fly ash is currently landfilled as waste due to lack of efficient purification technologies to separate unburned carbon from fly ash. A rotary triboelectrostatic separator has been developed and patented recently at the University of Kentucky with unique features. Several fly ash samples have been used to understand the effects of major process parameters on the separation performance. The results show that compared to existing triboelectrostatic separators, the rotary triboelectrostatic separator has significant advantages in particle charging efficiency, solids throughput, separation efficiency, applicable particle size range.展开更多

The iron-bearing minerals were characterized to be mainly pyrite in all coal samples by the hyperfine parameters.Suphate（FeSO4·nH2O） was found in bituminite and anthracite coal.The MSssbauer spectra of the fly and bottom ashes as a result of pulverised coal combustion（PCC） in Xiaolongtan,Shuicheng and Luohuang Power Plants are comprised of superimposed sextets and doulets of oxides includes maghemite（γ-Fe2O3）, magnitite（Fe3O4）, haematite（α-Fe2O3）, magnesioferite （MgFe2O4）, Fe^3＋/Fe^2＋ -mullite, Fe^3＋ -glass silicate and metallic iron. The studies also show that iron-bearing minerals in coals are largely dependant on geological regions and coal rank, the composition of the corresponding fly and bottom ashes will not only depend on the type and mineralogy of the feed coal but also on the local nature of combustion.展开更多

In this paper, with the application of the fly-ash recycle and tworstage combus-tion technologies in a fluidized bed combustor, the desulfurization test under reducing atmosphere isdescribed. Meanwllile, ammonia injection test was also conducted. Results show that desulfurizationunder reducing atmosphere has higher efficiency, and ammonia injection denitrification effect is veryperfect.展开更多
