| T2009 Prof. Jost O.L. Wendt Honorary Session - Oxycombustion of Coal I | |||||||
| Overview | Oxy-combustion (OC) of coal refers to using oxygen-enriched air as the oxidant. Compared to combustion with air, OC coupled with staged combustion, intrinsically reduces NOx emissions, and the elimination of nitrogen from the combustion air produces a CO2-rich, sequestration-ready flue gas. We look forward to a stimulating forum for promoting the advancement of OC technologies and invite your participation as a speaker to address the science and engineering opportunities to deploy OC technology into the Nation's power production portfolio. Contributions are invited in the Focus Areas listed below. 1. Recent results on oxycombustion of coal and other solid fuels 2. Burner redesign and retrofit options for oxyfiring of coal 3. Ignition, devolatilization and pollutant formation mechanisms during OC of coal 4. Kinetic and CFD Modeling of OC processes 5. Engineering options for retrofitting existing fleet and cost issues 6. New OC boiler design – materials and engineering challenges | ||||||
