Coal Testing Quality of Coal plays a very crucial part, as Thermal power is majorly dependent on this non-renewable resource. The performance of a boiler design heavily relies on the fuel or in this case, coal analysis. If lower grade coal is used instead of the prescribed quality for the design of the boiler, a substantial amount of impact may be seen in its working and efficiency. From Vendors point of view, Pricing of coal also depends on its quality or 'Grade'.

The major differences between Gas Calcined Anthracite (GCA) and Electrically Calcined Anthracite (ECA) lie in their production process, characteristics, and specific uses: 1. Production Process: Gas Calcined Anthracite (GCA): GCA is produced by calcining anthracite coal in gas-fired rotary kilns at temperatures ranging from 1200°C to 1400°C. This process removes volatile matter and moisture, resulting in a product with higher fixed carbon content and lower ash and volatile matter. Electrically Calcined Anthracite (ECA): ECA is produced by heating anthracite coal in an electric furnace at even higher temperatures, around 2000°C to 2400°C. The electric calcining process reduces sulfur and ash content more effectively and increases electrical conductivity. This process also removes most of the impurities, resulting in higher purity levels. 2. Carbon Content: GCA: Generally has a lower fixed carbon content compared to ECA, usually ranging from 85% to 92%. ECA: Has a higher fixed carbon content, typically over 95%, due to the more intense calcining process. 3. Electrical Conductivity: GCA: Has lower electrical conductivity compared to ECA. ECA: Due to the electric calcining process, it has excellent electrical conductivity, making it suitable for applications like carbon electrodes in the aluminum and steel industries. 4. Sulfur Content: GCA: Tends to have a slightly higher sulfur content, typically around 0.3% to 0.5%. ECA: Has very low sulfur content, often below 0.3%, making it more desirable in applications where low sulfur levels are critical. 5. Uses: GCA: Primarily used as a carbon raiser (recarburizer) in the steel and foundry industries to increase the carbon content of molten metal. ECA: Used in applications requiring higher purity, such as in the production of electrodes, cathodes, and in the aluminum industry for its superior electrical conductivity and low impurity levels. Summary: GCA: Lower fixed carbon, higher sulfur, and less electrical conductivity; used mainly as a carbon raiser. ECA: Higher fixed carbon, lower sulfur, and excellent electrical conductivity; used in high-purity applications like aluminum and steel production.

Biomass Burners Re-Engineered! We just completed the trial run of our newly designed burner, which incorporates significant technological improvements that enhance performance, safety, and durability. First, we have introduced a dual fuel feeding system explicitly designed for high-capacity burners, ensuring fuel is spread uniformly across the furnace for maximum efficiency. Add to that four layers of insulation and high-alumina refractory material, ensuring long refractory life and safe operation by keeping the burner body at room temperature. We need to re-engineer because we design burners for special applications that require high capacity and continuous operations. The existing design philosophy no longer suits our requirements. For example, this burner will be used for one of India's most significant MSW torrefaction projects. #MSWtorrefaction #BiomassBurners #Pelletburner #torrefaction #Gasification

Decades of coal ash left behind at Consumers Energy’s J.H. Campbell Generating Complex on the shores of Lake Michigan will be repurposed into a cement replacement used in concrete manufacturing. https://lnkd.in/g2vENH23

The use of waste heat recovery (#WHR) systems in cement plants can provide #cement producers with cheaper #energy as well as a more sustainable way of producing cement, supporting cement plant #decarbonisation. In #icrmag's January issue, Exergy ORC highlights the benefits of using WHR systems in cement production and the suitability of organic Rankine cycle technology. https://lnkd.in/evm8K_Xu #wasteheatrecovery #alternativeenergy #alternativepower #ORC #organicRankineCycle

Comparison of Various Steel Production Routes, Emission Intensities, Emission Reduction Potential Retrofitting existing BF-BOF plants with carbon capture may not be competitive in the long term, especially in locations where hydrogen can be produced at a competitive cost which would make H2-DRI-EAF based steelmaking favourable with an emission intensity of 0.01 tCO2/t steel. It falls short in addressing upstream emissions from coal mine methane leakages associated with the BFBOF route, which is around 12% - 14% of end use emissions CCS aims to capture (Agora Industry, 2023). Furthermore, the low carbon dioxide concentrations in iron and steelmaking gas streams make carbon capture less cost-effective and efficient. In the short term, the most favourable option for carbon capture application would be the NG-DRIEAF route considering its commercial availability. Yet, given the slow pace of technological and market development we anticipate that carbon capture will play a limited role in the steel industry, with its applications primarily confined to standalone cases. Consequently, we advocate for a shift in focus within the steel industry towards investing in alternative production technologies with lower carbon intensities and greater emission reduction potential. Carbon capture should not divert investment away from these alternative production technologies.

More than 1/3 of emissions reductions in the global #cement sector will come from #carbonmanagement from now to 2050. Cement industry alone will have to capture and store over 1Gt of CO2 per year by mid-century. The number of carbon management projects has soared to over 100 projects globally in the sector 👏👏 Claude Lorea of GCCA – Global Cement and Concrete Association explains the sector roadmap to a 1000+ audience at the #GHGT17 conference by IEAGHG and Emissions Reduction Alberta (ERA).
