TY - JOUR TI - Study of mechanically activated coal combustion AU - Burdukov Anatoliy P AU - Popov Vitalij A AU - Faleev Valentin A JN - Thermal Science PY - 2009 VL - 13 IS - 1 SP - 127 EP - 138 PT - Article AB - Combustion and air gasification of mechanically activated micro-ground coals in the flux have been studied. Influence of mechanically activated methods at coals grinding on their chemical activeness at combustion and gasification has been determined. Intense mechanical activation of coals increases their chemical activeness that enables development of new highly boosted processing methods for coals with various levels of metamorphism.
