Combustion of Coal-Water Slurry in the Small Scale Furnace for Firing Test

Coal-water slurry (CWS) is a new kind of liquid fuel developed in recent years. In this presentation CWS's firing test and relative facility which is suitable for the furnaces in the metallurgical industry are introduced.
The CWS's combustion characteristics analysis is made for some key factors which could have an influence on CWS's combustion efficiencies,and proposition is also made for some essential points by which direct the CWS's combustion at a high efficient. Further, two realizable method of CWS’s ignition are presented. Therefore, a scientific basis has provided for the commercial application of CWS in the metallurgical industry.
