Simultaneous investigation of coal ignition and soot formation in two-stage O2/N2 and O2/CO2 atmospheres

Peng Ma et al.

Summary: Flexible oxy-coal combustion with carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is crucial for achieving carbon neutrality in renewable energy. This study investigates coal stream ignition and soot evolution in different O-2/N-2 and O-2/CO2 atmospheres. Results show that the O-2/CO2 case delays ignition and reduces soot volume fraction compared to the conventional O-2/N-2 atmosphere. The effect of oxygen fraction on soot volume fraction differs between the two atmospheres. Additionally, the coal rank and local temperature affect soot formation ability.
