Read MoreThe large surface area of the pulverised coal as well as the high temperature inside the mill leads to rapid oxidation of the coal This results in further heat buildup and the potential for a fire If the mill is restarted without first removing the hot coal an explosion can occur when particles are suspended and exposed to the air.

Read MoreExplosions in a pulverized coal system are normally called “puffs ” A mill puff is an explosion in the mill system caused by an explosive combination of coal air and temperature Mill puffs most often originate in the under bowl area and can cause very destructive damage to the primary air ducting Mill puffs or explosions can be very dangerous resulting in serious damage to the pulverizer system or injury to.

Read MoreJun 07 2018 Any burning or smoldering material inside the mill can evolve into an explosion because they provide an ignition source if the air to fuel (coal) ratio is elevated or higher than desired Air to fuel ratio inside the mill is always elevated during mill start up.
Read MoreAmong the various causes of coal fires spontaneous combustion during storage results in a large number of losses Spontaneous combustion is caused by adsorption of oxygen at the outer and inner surface of coal which results in oxidation Oxidation is an exothermic reaction which causes the temperature of the coal stack to rise gradually.
Read MoreTo summarize the coal mill controls they may be divided basically into two major categories 1 To control the quality of coal being sent to the burners located on the furnace walls The word quality here means the temperature and fineness of the PF The set temperature values are dependent on the percentage of volatile matter that exists in the main fuel.
