Abstract
A novel process for the preparation of an ultra-clean superfine coal–oil slurry is presented. The process uses a high-pressure water-jet mill and a pumping slurry jet mill for coal superfine comminution. The mean diameter of coal particles in the slurry is 2.71μm, and the ash content is 1.05%. The stability, rheological behavior, and heat value of the slurry are investigated. The results show that the ultra-clean superfine coal–oil slurry has a high heat value, a high level of stability, and low viscosity. The slurry can be used as fuel in a high-speed diesel engine. The total energy consumption of comminution of the coal particles to reduce the mean diameter from 3mm to about 2.71μm is 124kWh per ton, which is lower than the total energy consumption by traditional ball mills by about 50–70%.
