Using ignition of coal dust produced by different types of mechanical treatment under conditions of rapid heating

Experiments aimed at studying the ignition of coal dust obtained by coal disintegration in high-energy mills are performed in a tubular furnace. Effective kinetic constants of ignition of coal dust ground in a vibrational–centrifugal mill and in a disintegration mill under conditions of rapid heating are determined for the first time. It is shown that the volatile release rate depends on the method of coal grinding.
