Abstract
The unburned carbon concentration in fly ash and the influence of main factors on the reduction of nitrogen oxides during gaseous fuel reburning process were experimentally studied in a 36 kW down-fired furnace when five typical coals with different qualities were served as the primary fuel. It is found that the higher nitrogen oxide reduction efficiency can be obtained by reburning process when the coal used as the primary fuel contains more volatile matter. But under the optimizational operating conditions, both above 50% nitrogen oxide reduction and low carbon loss can be achieved by reburning process even though the primary fuel is the low-volatile coal. The experimental results show that the reasonable residence time in reburn zone is 0.6-0.9 s, the appropriate gaseous reburn fuel percentage is 10%-15% and the optimal average excess air coefficient in reburn zone is 0.8-0.9. These results extend the ranges of the key parameter values for reburning process with respect to that the low-volatile coals are used as the primary fuel.
