Justification of the efficiency of the application of the preliminary processing of the components structure of artificial liquid fuel

Abstract

In the conditions of tougher environmental requirements for the operation of energy facilities for the regions of the Russian Federation in which solid fuels are competitive with other types of fuels, or have no alternative, the use of artificial fuels derived from coal becomes relevant. One of the types of such artificial fuels are artificial composite liquid fuels. To increase the energy, economic and environmental characteristics, prior to the process of obtaining artificial composite liquid fuels, preliminary preparation of the fuel component composition is required. The article presents the calculated work on the evaluation of the effectiveness of the preliminary preparation of the component composition for the production of artificial composite liquid fuels. The efficiency of the use of coal enrichment processes, the preparation of the water component, and the variation in the content of components in the final product of an artificial composite liquid fuel are considered. The assessment was carried out according to the change in the lower heat of combustion of the resulting fuels to the working and dry ash-free mass, as well as the cost of the fuels.
