Abstract
The flue gas emissions from co-combustion of anthracite powder and water hyacinth were characterized. The effects of combustion temperature, mixing ratio, and oxygen concentration on SO2 and NOx emissions were studied. On this basis, the response surface test was designed. When the ratio of water hyacinth in the mixed fuels was higher, the SO2 and NOx emissions were minimized at the mixing ratios of 5/5 and 8/2 respectively. Among all tested combustion temperatures, the total emission of SO2 and NOx were maximized at 900 °C. Among all tested oxygen concentrations, the total emission of SO2 and NOx maximized at the oxygen concentration of 50%. The influence factors on SO2 and NOx emissions rank as oxygen concentration > mixing ratio > temperature.
