“…Despite these advantages, the combustion of PC as a standalone fuel for energy production is challenging due to its poor flammability (attributed to its low volatile content) that can result in unburned carbon in the exhaust, high sulfur content that increases SO x emissions, and high concentrations of vanadium and nickel in its ash that can result in fire-side corrosion issues [1]. The problem of high SO x emissions may be addressed via innovative flue gas treatment technologies [2][3][4]. In addition, strategies for the clean combustion of PC with in situ removal of both CO 2 and SO x using CaO as a sorbent has also been proposed [5].…”

A Computational Fluid Dynamic study was carried out to match the measured outer ash deposition rates associated with the combustion of petroleum coke (PC)–natural gas in AIR and O2/CO2 (70/30 vol%, OXY70). The fly ash PSD associated with high-fixed-carbon, non-porous fuel was estimated using a shrinking sphere burnout model and employed in conjunction with particle kinetic energy (PKE), particle viscosity (µP), and a critical Weber-number-based capture criterion. Deposition rate predictions were sensitive to the fly ash composition employed for estimating µP due to the significant enrichment of Fe in the deposits. Predictions were insensitive to the specific µP model formulation employed or whether the V2O5 in the ash was assumed to play the role of a glass former or a glass modifier. OXY70 scenario impaction rates were significantly lower than the measured deposition rates when the fly ash PSD associated with the AIR scenario was employed in the calculations. This necessitated an ad hoc modification of the OXY70 fly ash PSD to a coarser range to match the measurements and attributing it to agglomeration resulting from longer residence times and higher temperatures. This shift in PSD was in line with AIR and OXY70 fly ash PSD measurements reported previously.
