Abstract
To address the slagging problem during coal entrained-flow bed (EFB) gasification, the influences of textile dyeing sludge (TDS) addition on the fusing characteristics of high ash fusion temperature (AFT) coal were explored under a reducing atmosphere. And the change mechanisms were investigated by X-ray diffraction, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) and FactSage calculation. The results showed that the flow temperature of high ash fusion temperature (AFT) coal decreased below 1380 deg;C when the TDS addition reached 20%–25%, which met the requirements of liquid-slag removal for EFB gasification. With the content of TDS increasing, the formations of low-melting minerals (e.g., hercynite, anorthite, and albite) decreased AFT. The bridging oxygen bonds of the network structure were destroyed by metal ions (e.g., Fe2+, Ca2+, Na+), formation of much non-bridged oxygen (NBO) bonds relaxed the silicate network, thus decreasing the AFT. The formations of NBO bonds were confirmed by gradual decreases in the peak strengths of Si–O–Si and Si–O–Al bonds and intensified the vibration of Fe–O and Si–O–M (M: Ca2+ or Na+) bonds. FactSage calculation results were in good agreement with the experimental ash fusion behavior.
