EU clean coal technology—co-combustion of coal and biomass
Mar 01 1998 · Especially in co-firing straw with its high content of Cl high concentrations of chlorine in the flue gas were found. At Grenaa the chlorine content in the flue gas for a 60 biomass share was 20 times higher than for coal only. One should note however that in this case a very low chlorine coal the free chlorine residual is adjusted to maintain a minimum level of 0.2 mg/L Cl 2 throughout the distribution system. The importance of break-point chlorination lies in the control of taste and odor and increased germicidal efficiency.

Emissions from cofiring coal biomass and sewage sludge
physically and chemically very different to coal. Biomass fuels typically contain a high percentage (up to 70–80 ) volatile matter compared to the 10–50 present in most coals. Even though the ash content of biomass is commonly lower than that of coal the content of alkali metals such as K and Na can be higher (Boneham 2008). The burning of coal like the burning of all fossil fuels (oil and natural gas included) releases large quantities of carbon dioxide (CO 2) into the atmosphere and is a major driver of global warming.A potent greenhouse gas CO 2 molecules allow the shorter-wavelength rays from the Sun to enter the atmosphere and strike Earth s surface but they do not allow much of the long-wave radiation

Transformation of nitrogen sulfur and chlorine during straw pyrolysis at temperatures from 35 to 1450 °C was investigated by using the coupled thermogravimetry−differential scanning calorimetry−mass spectrometry (TG-DSC-MS) techniques and compared with that of coal. The characteristics of the residual solid char from the straw were analyzed using x-ray diffraction (XRD). Nov 15 2017 · Coal impacts water pollution. When you burn charcoal in your grill at home ash is leftover. The same is true for coal-fired power plants which produce more than 100 million tons of coal ash every year. More than half of that waste ends up in ponds lakes landfills and other sites where over time it can contaminate waterways and drinking water supplies.
