OPTIMIZATION OF PRODUCTION AND IMPROVEMENT OF CHARACTERISTICS OF WATER-COAL FUEL SUSPENSIONS BASED ON HIGH-ASH COALS
Annotatsiya
This article explores the possibilities for improving the characteristics of water-coal fuel suspensions (WCFS)based on high-ash coals from Uzbekistan. Investigations indicate that the incorporation of stabilizing and plasticizing additives, such as sodium and calcium hydroxides, can result in notable enhancements in both rheological characteristics and calorific value of WCFS. These results are important for optimizing production and increasing the technological suitability of WCFS based on high-ash coals from Uzbekistan, which allows them to be used as highly effective fuels. This investigation is a significant advancement towards the progress and enhancement of fuel blends and can be valuable for engineers and manufacturers who are engaged in the manufacturing process of WCFS.
