The ash fusion temperatures (AFTs) of coal mineral matter at high temperature are important parameters for all gasifiers. Experiments have been conducted in which mixtures of selected coal ashes and SiO2, Al2O3, CaO, Fe2O3, and MgO were subjected to the standard test for ash fusibility. The computer software package FactSage has been used to calculate the liquidus temperatures of coal ash ...
Whether the fuel burned is oil or coal, and whether the corrosion location is in the furnace (at temperatures of 500 o700 o F) or the hightemperature components (at a metal temperature above 1,000 o F), the corrosion mechanisms are similar. Constituents within the ash form a lowmeltingpoint species or a mixture of several compounds that has ...
Ash fusion temperatures Ash fusion tempe rature tests have been around for almost a century. At first there was just one, then three, and finally we know have four reported fusion temperatures. Designed for stoker furnaces Many deficiencies when used for evaluation of slagging or fouling deposits in pulverized coal furnaces.

Ashfusion temperatures. MTI measures four conventional ashfusion temperatures (AFTs) determined under oxidizing or reducing conditions (ASTM standard D1857). The AFTs include: 1) initial deformation temperature, 2) softening temperature, 3) hemispherical temperature, and 4) fluid temperature. Viscosity Measurement – T 250
Ash fusion temperatures (AFTs) of ashes with different ratio of V2O5 and NiO were investigated under mild reducing (CO/CO2 = 6:4) and oxidizing (air) atmosphere. FactSage, Xray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy/electron dispersive Xray (SEMEDX) were applied to determine liquidus temperatures, minerals transformation, and morphology of ash and slag at high temperature.
SGS proximate coal ash analysis services include: Ash Fusion. An SGS ash fusion test gives you an indication of the softening and melting behavior of coal ash at high temperatures within the boiler. Critical ash softening temperatures are determined by monitoring the increasing deformation of the sample as it is heated.

depositional behavior of coal ash. The ASME ASH FUSION RESEARCH PROJECT (1) provided a good review of the various ash fusion tests used around the world, along with several examples of poor applications of the fusion test. The use of fusion temperatures in contract specifications to eliminate
To demonstrate the usefulness of high temperature DTA in explaining the ash fusion and slagging characteristics of thermal coals in the following areas: To complete a scoping DTA study on coal ash samples which have been examined in other ACARP sponsored ash fusion projects.
coalfired generation facility, changes in coal quality were affecting the plant''s generating capacity. A mine that historically supplied coal to Hunter Plant closed in early 2001, necessitating a fuel switch to a supplier with lower ash fusion temperatures. Low fusion temperatures are a primary cause of unit slagging and unplanned unit outages.
Fusion temperatures are based on fuel ash whereas deposits commonly are enriched and depleted in several elements relative to the fuel. Fusion temperatures are measured over short time periods while heating ash at a rate of 8 +/ 3 ºC (15 +/ 5 ºF) per minute whereas ash deposits typically accumulate for hours and are formed during cooling ...
Coal Coal Structure and properties of coal: The plant material from which coal is derived is composed of a complex mixture of organic compounds, including cellulose, lignin, fats, waxes, and tannins. As peat formation and coalification proceed, these compounds, which have more or less open structures, are broken down, and new compounds—primarily aromatic (benzenelike) and hydroaromatic ...
Ash Fusion Temperatures. Initial Deformation Temperature Temperature at which the top of the ash cone begins to round. Softening Temperature Temperature at which the ash cone fuses into a spherical lump. Fluid Temperature Temperature at which the ash cone spreads out over the base as a flat layer. 2,600 degrees F – A high ash fusion temperature.
Sep 19, 2018· There exists a number of studies, demonstrating that the chemical and mineral composition of the coal ash governs its melting characteristics and fusion temperatures (Gray 1987; Kucukbayrak et al. 1993; Vorres 1979; Vassilev et al. 1995; Winegartner and Rhodes 1975).Since the composition of the ash influences the AFT magnitudes and, thereby, performance of a coalbased .
