Understanding the reactivity of pulverised coal at extreme conditions when injected into blast furnaces during PCI

本研究旨在加深对高炉喷吹过程中煤燃烧的认识，建立喷吹煤粉过程的数学模型。该项目为社区带来的主要经济和社会效益是：(I)提高高炉运营的效率，从而在一个日益具有全球竞争力的行业中以更低的成本生产铁，支持澳大利亚钢铁行业和国内市场。以及(Ii)对工艺燃料效率的影响和减少化石燃料来源的二氧化碳排放的可能性，为钢铁生产提供更清洁的铁源。

This study aims to improve the understanding and develop a mathematical model of coal combustion during injection into blast furnaces as PCI (pulverised coal injection). The principle economic and social benefits of this project to the community are: (i) Increased efficiency of Blast Furnace operations, resulting in cheaper production of iron in an increasingly globally competitive industry, supporting the Australian steel industry and domestic market. And (ii) the potential to impact on process fuel efficiency and reduce CO2 emissions from fossil fuel sources providing a cleaner source of iron for steel production.
