Abstract
In this work we consider coal-water slurry fuels as an alternative to the traditional types of fuels, in particular, coal. Assessment is performed using a software tool for calculating the combustion process of coal-water slurry fuels. The obtained results will allow one to perform computer-aided environmental calculations during CWS combustion in experimental and industrial plants.
Highlights
The main public attention is focused on electrification of power sources and personal vehicles, liquid fuel still has a 100 times higher energy capacity than the best modern lithium-ion batteries, and this difference is predicted to last for more than a dozen years
The problems of sustainable development of economic systems at the level of enterprises, regions, individual industries and the national economy as a whole are the subject of scientific research [1,2,3,4,5]
The new software tool for computer-aided calculation of parameters of coal-water slurry fuel combustion process will simplify and speed up the calculations of the percentage composition of the resulting fuel; of the thermal characteristics of the source and obtained fuels with their subsequent comparison; of the amount of pollutants emitted with flue gases into the atmosphere when burning CWS; and of calorimetric temperature of fuel combustion
Summary
The main public attention is focused on electrification of power sources and personal vehicles, liquid fuel still has a 100 times higher energy capacity than the best modern lithium-ion batteries, and this difference is predicted to last for more than a dozen years Given this fact, investments in improving heatgenerating devices and internal combustion engines continue to be relevant, especially owing to the fact that its efficiency increases together with significant reduction of harmful emissions to environment. Environmental problems arising from the use of coal fuel require the development and implementation of new environmentally friendly coal technologies [11] In this regard, the use of coal in the form of coal-water slurry (CWS) is promising. The set task is to study the advantages and disadvantages of using water-carbon emulsion in real boilers based on the previously developed software tool for calculating the environmental indicators of the coal-water slurry combustion
