Combustion of mixed fuels from biomass and brown coal

In this article there is presented a part of combustion tests results performed at the VSB - Technical University of Ostrava in 2007. The combustion tests were performed in the test room of Energetic Research Center in terms of project MPO: FI-IM3/081: Research of equipment for ecological combustion with focus on mixture of coal and fuels from biomass. Energy Research Center (thereinafter VEC) and BENEKOVterm, s.r.o. worked together oil this project. VEC was represented by Ing. Jiri Horak PhD., Ing. Kamil Krpec and Ing. Pavel Abrla. In different weight ratios, pellets from brown coal and wooden chips were made for combustion tests. While the combustion tests were running, the emissions from flue gases were continually monitored (mainly CO, NO(x), SO(2)) and the O(2) volume in flue oases. When the all combustion tests have ended, it should be said, which pellets are the most suitable for mixing regarding the combustion process, flue gases emissions etc.
