METHOD OF BURNING OIL COKE Russian patent published in 1999 - IPC

FIELD: power engineering. SUBSTANCE: coke is burned jointly with coal at grinding degree corresponding to that of lean coals and with optimal oil coke proportion corresponding to yield of volatile fuel constituents determined by the following formula: b_coke/b_coal = f(V_coke-vol/V_coal-vol) where b_coke and b_cole, respectively, are portions of oil coke and coal, weight consumptions in unit time; V_coke-vol and V_coal-vol, respectively, are yields of volatile components of oil coke and coal, %. Pulverization of oil coke and coal is performed jointly or separately followed by mixing coke and coal dusts before entering burner, or they are introduced into burner separately. EFFECT: enabled utilization of coke as power-plant fuel.
