Experimental study of the kinetics of single coal particles

An experimental method for investigation of combustion of single coal particles, which allows to determine the reactivity of different coal types was developed. The possibility, with this method, to determine the combustion of coal particles for a fraction of up to 160 microns experimentally, and for a fraction of up to 25 microns calculated on the basis of experimental data. Shown was the simplicity of this method in comparison with the existing ones. Experimental investigations of the behavior on the graphite electrode in air and oxygen environments was carried out
