Tecogen Inc. is developing a coal-water fuel (CWF)-fired advanced combustor for residential applications. The proposed program will examine the stability and rheology of the CWFs prepared from various beneficiated coal products made from Illinois No. 6, Wyodak, and Upper Elkhorn No. 3. Fuel coals characterization will include: particle size distribution, ultimate and proximate analyses of coal, ash composition, ash fusion temperature, and solids concentration. For rheological characteristics, data will be obtained at varying shear rates, temperature, and agitation or recirculation in the bulk storage tanks. The effect of freeze-thaw on the stability and rheology will be evaluated. Control of environmental conditions will be examined by means of formulation additives, including the addition of freezing point depressants and biocides. Bulk storage studies will involve testing CWF stability characteristics with and without agitation or recirculation. The design of the storage tank will be reviewed, and the effectiveness of cone-bottom and dish-bottom tanks will be tested. This quarter, work was conducted on Task 1: project planning in the areas of preparing the program plan and the literature review, and in defining the system components. 16 refs., 11 figs., 2 tabs.
