Single particle ignition and combustion of anthracite, semi-anthracite and bituminous coals in air and simulated oxy-fuel conditions
Juan Riaza,Reza Khatami,Yiannis A. Levendis,L. Álvarez,María Victoria Gil,Covadonga Pevida,Fernando Rubiera,José J. Pis +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a fundamental investigation was conducted on the combustion behavior of single particles (75-150 µm) of four coals of different ranks: anthracite, semi-anthracite and high-volatile bituminous.

Oxy-fuel combustion of coal and biomass blends
TL;DR: In this article, the results obtained under several oxy-fuel atmospheres (21%O 2 −79%CO 2, 30% O 2 −70% CO 2, 35% O2 −65% CO2 ) were compared with those attained in air.

Combustion of single biomass particles in air and in oxy-fuel conditions
Juan Riaza,Reza Khatami,Yiannis A. Levendis,L. Álvarez,María Victoria Gil,Covadonga Pevida,Fernando Rubiera,José J. Pis +7 more
TL;DR: The combustion behaviors of four different pulverized biomasses were evaluated in the laboratory as discussed by the authors in both air and O2/CO2 atmospheres containing 21, 30, 35, and 50% oxygen mole fractions.
Oxy-fuel combustion kinetics and morphology of coal chars obtained in N2 and CO2 atmospheres in an entrained flow reactor
TL;DR: In this article, the thermal reactivity and kinetics of four coal chars (HVN, UM, SAB and BA) in an oxy-fuel combustion atmosphere (30%O2-70%CO2) were studied using a thermobalance.

Biomass co-firing under oxy-fuel conditions: A computational fluid dynamics modelling study and experimental validation
TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental and numerical study on co-firing olive waste (0, 10, 20% on mass basis) with two coals in an entrained flow reactor under three oxy-fuel conditions was presented.
