Optimization of particle size distribution in circulating fluidized ...
Properties of coal gangue feed, especially its particle size distribution (PSD) and variable hardness, result in considerable impacts on both the efficiencies of the circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boiler and wastage of crushers. These two aspects are addressed in this study. First, the Aspen Plus software was used to optimize the coal gangue crushing system for the CFB boiler; it facilitated ...
