Comparison of industrial wastes as binder in the agglomeration of coal fines
(North-West University (South Africa)., 2021)The industries that consumed the most coal in South Africa, in 2015, were electricity generation, 53%, basic iron and steel manufacturing, 20%, and synthetic fuel and chemical industries, 10%, with the rest being used in ... -
Development and manufacturing of a prototype pulverized fuel feeder for a micro burner
(North-West University (South Africa) , Potchefstroom Campus, 2017)Existing coal fired power stations could be improved by increasing the efficiency of the combustion process. The combustion process is incorrectly set up since inaccurate calorific values (CV) for the pulverized fuel is ... -
Development of a micro burner for the experimental determination of the net calorific value at constant pressure of pulverised coal
(North-West University (South Africa), 2019)Coal combustion remains the major resource of power generation internationally. Coal consists of different substances, which influence its quality and properties. One such property is the calorific value (CV), which specifies ... -
Development of a micro scale pulverised coal test burner
(North-West University (South Africa) , Potchefstroom Campus, 2016)The power demand in South Africa continues to grow which makes it more important to understand different input parameters in power stations. One of these input parameters is the calorific value (CV) of coal. The current ...
