In this study an attempt was done to profoundly explore the pyrolysis and combustion behaviors and emission characteristics of lignite samples in O-2/N-2 and O-2/CO2 (oxy-fuel conditions) ambients. A special focus was allocated to the effects of three inorganic materials, potassium (K), calcium (Ca) and iron (Fe) on combustion characteristics of Turkish lignite using non-isothermal Thermo-gravimetric Analysis (TGA) technique combined with Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and the effects of ambient gases and various oxygen mole fractions were considered. Eventually the co-processing combustion tests of lignite and the ash contents of different biomass fuels were investigated and the possible way of using biomass as a potential source of inexpensive catalysts in combustion processes were discussed. Co-processing combustion tests of lignite and biomass ash contents indicated that the hazelnut shell and walnut shell ash contents were significantly effective in increasing the char reactivity of lignite due to high concentration of potassium based oxides during combustion tests carried out in both air and 30% O-2 in CO2 ambients. Furthermore the catalytic reactivity of wheat straw and cattle manure ash contents were observed in the second region of combustion regarding volatile matter release and combustion in both air and 30% O-2 in CO2 ambients. These results are thought to be due to high concentrations of Alkali and Alkaline earth metals existed in the impregnated lignite samples with wheat straw and cattle manure ash contents and especially Na-based oxides in the cattle manure form. Finally in the case of lignite sample impregnated with saw dust ash content, it was observed that the impregnated lignite was significantly more reactive in devolatalization process in 30% O-2 in CO2 ambient. These results revealed that the ash contents of walnut and hazelnut shell biomass fuels can be used as a potential source of inexpensive K-based catalysts in the co-processing of coal and biomass ash. Furthermore high concentrations of Alkali and Alkaline earth metals existed in the ash contents of biomass fuels like wheat straw, cattle manure and saw dust can make them suitable sources of inexpensive catalysts and develop a step forward in economic aspects of catalytic coal combustion.

Combustion characteristics of asphaltites
Kök, Mustafa Verşan; Ceylan, Ezgi; Ozkiliç, Oke (Informa UK Limited, 2005-04-01)
In this research, a laboratory work is performed to observe the combustion characteristics and reaction kinetic's of Silopi region asphaltites. A total of twelve experiments were performed with two different mesh sizes and under three different pressures. Product gas analyses were used to determine atomic H/C ratio, relative reaction rate, activation energy and Arrhenius constant for each asphaltite sample studied. The relative reaction rate vs. inverse temperature plots of Silopi asphaltite showed two main...
Characterization and reactivity studies for chemical loop gasification of high sulfur lignites
Kanca, Arzu; Üner, Deniz; Department of Chemical Engineering (2013)
The objective of this study was to characterize and to determine the gasification reactivity of Tuncbilek lignites. The ultimate analysis of Tuncbilek lignite revealed that the elemental composition is 37.7% C, 3.6% H, 1.6% N, and 5.4% S, while the proximate analysis indicated 4.7 ± 0.9% moisture 27.9 ± 0.1% volatiles and 37.9 ± 0.2% ash. In this context, four different reactions during gasification namely, pyrolysis, oxidation, hydrogenation, and wet air oxidation were investigated separately. Carbon resid...
Combustion characteristics of coal briquettes. 1. Thermal features
Altun, Naci Emre; Bagci, AS (2003-09-01)
In this study, the influence of some of the most important briquetting parameters on the combustion and thermal properties of coal briquettes were studied in detail. For this purpose, briquettes with various organic (molasses, sulfide liquor, carboxyl methyl cellulose, Peridur XC3, and Peridur C10) and inorganic agents (cement and bentonite) were prepared, to be combusted in a reaction cell that was complemented with a continuous gas analyzer unit. Furthermore, using the binding agent that provided the most...
Combustion behavior and kinetics of a Turkish lignite blended with biomass/magnesite dust
Yousefzad Farrokhi, Farshid; Kazanç Özerinç, Feyza; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2017)
This study investigated the effect of blending on the combustion behavior of Turkish lignite blended with biomass or magnesite dust using a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA) under air atmosphere. The lignite used in this study is Tunçbilek lignite (TL), which is blended with the biomass types; olive residue (OR) and almond shell (AS), and the inorganic industrial waste, magnesite dust (MD). The blends are composed of various weight fractions of fuels, with a constant weight fraction of molasses (10 wt. %) as...
Combustion kinetics of oil shales by reaction cell experiments
Kök, Mustafa Verşan; Bagci, S. (Estonian Academy Publishers, 2008-01-01)
In this study, kinetics parameters of combustion reaction of Seyitomer and Beypazari oil shales were determined using Weijdema's model of reaction kinetics. The analysis of reaction kinetics experiments showed two different reaction regions at combustion of Beypazari oil shale sample. Only one reaction region was observed at combustion of Seyitomer oil shale. CO2/CO ratios increased gradually at low and medium temperatures and stabilized at high temperatures, especially after complete combustion. A decrease...
