Estimates of ocean wind speed and […]
CHAR COMBUSTION AND LATE BURNOUT REACTIVITY
Rhett Brewer and Dr. William Hecker, Chemical Engineering To study the effects of the carbon structure on coal reactivity during the late stages of combustion, it was necessary to be able to know what effect mineral content had on the reactivity. Two coals, dietz (high mineral content) and pitt 8 (low mineral content), were chosen […]
