Description
Coal mixing method and application thereof TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of thermal power engineering, in particular to a coal mixing method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Low-temperature oxidation and spontaneous combustion of coal can reduce the calorific value of coal, reduce the value of coal as fuel, and also release harmful gases such as CO2, SO2, NO x , HCl, etc., which are harmful to the human body and pollute the atmosphere. Spontaneous combustion occurs when the heat accumulated by low-temperature oxidation of coal during stacking reaches a certain level, so it is necessary to start from inhibiting low-temperature oxidation to prevent spontaneous combustion. At present, the methods for inhibiting low-temperature oxidation are as follows: 1) layered compaction. By reducing the pores between coal particles through rolling, the entry of oxygen is reduced, which has a certain effect, but a large amount of manpower and material resources are consumed; 2) water cooling. By spraying water to reduce the temperature of the coal pile to achieve the effect of fire retardation, but the water evaporates easily, and the effect is limited; 3) spraying fire retardant or non-combustible substances. A covering layer is formed on the surface of the coal pile to block the air channel and reduce the entry of oxygen, but some chemicals have an impact on the environment; 4) filling inert gas around the coal pile, but it is easy to cause harm to the health of workers in the enclosed space.
[0003] Therefore, preventing low-temperature oxidation and spontaneous combustion of coal during stacking is a problem that needs to be solved urgently. SUMMARY

The greater the difference between the theoretical value and the measured value is, the more conducive to inhibiting oxidation and pollutant emission in the corresponding mixing ratio. The influence relationship for different coals is relatively complex, and there may be two aspects of inhibition, or only one aspect of inhibition. The purpose of inhibiting oxidation and pollutant emission is achieved by the mixing of the coals, which is simple and easy to implement and very environmentally friendly. daf The mixture of the coal M and the coal N in a specific ratio has a phenomenon that the theoretical thermal weight loss value is greater than the measured thermal weight loss value at different temperatures, and the theoretical pollutant emission amount is greater than the measured pollutant emission amount, and the influence degree is different with different mixing ratios, which is closely related to the different water content and inorganic matter content in the coal.

[0041] Table 4 Synergistic effect of pollutant emissions (mL / L)
[0042] Figure 1 is a TG curve of low-temperature oxidation of single coal ABC. The low-temperature oxidation process of the coal is divided into two stages: 1) oxygen uptake and desorption stage (30-140°C), which is mainly physical adsorption, followed by chemical adsorption and chemical reaction. The active molecules or groups in the coal contact with oxygen and undergo oxidation reaction, and the temperature of the coal sample increases slowly. At the same time, the water in the coal begins to evaporate, and CO, CO2, CH4, H2S and other gases generated by the oxidation reaction. As the temperature increases, the physical adsorption changes to chemical adsorption, and the mass of the sample gradually decreases. 2) Oxygen uptake weight gain stage (150-260°C), which is mainly chemical adsorption and chemical reaction. In this stage, due to the evaporation of water and the release of gas in the first stage, the coal particles become gradually loose, and the adsorption capacity of oxygen increases. The mass of the coal sample increases with the increase of temperature, and the thermal gravimetric experiment curve (TG) reaches the highest point. The lowest point of the thermal gravimetric curve (TG) is the dividing point between the two stages.
[0043] As can be seen from Table 2 and Table 3, the ΔM 实测 value of A and B after mixing is greater than the ΔM 理论 value of A and B, and the ΔM 实测 value of A and B mixed with C sample is significantly smaller than the ΔM 理论 value of A and C sample (or B and C), indicating that the mixing of coal A and B promotes low-temperature oxidation and spontaneous combustion, and the mixing of coal A and C sample (or B and C) inhibits low-temperature oxidation and spontaneous combustion. Similarly, the inventors explored the difference between the ΔM 实测 value and the ΔM 理论 value of D coal and E coal, F coal and G coal after mixing in different proportions, and found that as long as the specific oxygen uptake weight gain ΔM and the specific V daf of the mixed coal M and coal N are met, the low-temperature oxidation is inhibited.
[0044] The weight ratio of coal M and coal N will further affect the oxidation inhibition effect.
[0045] As can be seen from Table 3, under the condition of a specific mixing ratio, the ΔM 实测 value and the ΔM 理论The difference value of the value is negative, indicating that the mixture has an inhibitory effect on low-temperature oxidation. When the mixing ratio of coal M and coal N is 50:50-30:70, ΔM 实测 The difference value of the value is negative, indicating that the mixture has an inhibitory effect on low-temperature oxidation. When the mixing ratio of coal M and coal N is 50:50-30:70, ΔM 理论 The difference value of the value is negative, indicating that the mixture has an inhibitory effect on low-temperature oxidation. When the mixing ratio of coal M and coal N is 50:50-30:70, ΔM x , HCl and other pollutants, and the absolute value of the difference is greater than that of other mixed coal ratios, which is more conducive to inhibiting pollutant emissions. The optimal mixing ratio range is determined to be 50:50-30:70. Considering the inhibition of low-temperature oxidation and pollutant emissions, the optimal mixing ratio is 50:50-30:70.
[0046] It can be seen that the mixing of coal is not a simple storage, but there is a synergistic or inhibitory effect between coal and coal. When the specific oxygen absorption weight ΔM and the specific V daf of coal M and coal N are met, the mixing of coal M and coal N is not a simple addition of two coals, but there is an interactive relationship. When the specific oxygen absorption weight ΔM and the specific V daf of coal M and coal N are met, the mixing of coal M and coal N at a specific ratio appears a phenomenon that the theoretical thermal weight loss value is greater than the measured thermal weight loss value at different temperatures, and the theoretical pollutant emission is greater than the measured pollutant emission. The difference between the theoretical value and the measured value is greater, indicating that the corresponding mixing ratio is more conducive to inhibiting oxidation and pollutant emissions. The influence relationship of different coals is relatively complex, which may exist in both aspects of inhibition, or may be one-sided. Through the way of mixed coal, the purpose of inhibiting oxidation and pollutant emissions is achieved, which is simple, easy and environmentally friendly.
[0047] The present application shows that by mixing three types of coal, lignite, bituminous coal and anthracite, the effect of preventing low-temperature oxidation and spontaneous combustion of coal during storage is achieved by mixing two different types of coal M and coal N, and the energy-saving and emission-reducing goals are achieved.
[0048] Finally, it should be noted that the above examples are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present application can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of the present application.
