High temperature air combustion technology (HiCOT) has demonstrated high effectiveness in significantly enhancing the performance of industrial furnaces, achieving advantages such as energy savings, CO2 reduction and reduced emission of NOx for gaseous fuels. This technology is expected to be applicable not only for gaseous fuels but also for solid fuels like pulverized coal, with the same advantages. To ascertain the advantages, the combustion behavior of pulverized coal in high temperature air using various coal combustion furnaces have been studied. As the results, we can ascertain the advantages of HiCOT applied to pulverized coal combustion, low NOx emission and stabilized combustion of low volatile coal.
