The properties and behavior with regard to handling, storage, and atomization in small-scale applications of different coal-water fuels (CWFs) prepared from different parent coals and various beneficiation techniques, were investigated. The CWFs that were prepared included Upper Elkhorn No. 3, Illinois No. 6, and Upper Wyodak coal cleaned by heavy media separation. Also, several CWFs were prepared with Upper Elkhorn No. 3 coal cleaned by heavy media separation with filtration, chemical cleaning, oil agglomeration, and froth flotation. Pressure drop measurements in tubes and viscometer measurements were used to construct rheograms of the seven CWFs that were prepared for shear rates up to 1000 1/s. Analysis of each CWF included proximate, ultimate and ash fusion temperatures. A fully automatic demonstration storage facility was designed and fabricated. The viscosity at higher shear rates (150,000 1/s) will be measured in a capillary viscometer to determine the viscosity at shear rate typically obtained with atomizers. The demonstration storage/handling facility will be tested. A cost analysis of a residential facility will be conducted. The seven CWFs will be burned in the residential combustor developed by Tecogen under contract DE-AC22-87PC79650. 41 figs., 12 tabs.
