论文简介    The nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides released from coal combustion pose serious environmental hazards, but there exists a contradiction between low-nitrogen combustion and efficient desulfurization, necessitating a deeper understanding of the impact of calcium-based desulfurization agents on NOx release. Based on one-stage and two-stage horizontal furnaces, the effects of temperature, coal types and CaO on the release of NO were explored under the coupled combustion and the separated combustion. The experimental results indicate that: under both conditions, the NO emissions of coals decrease with the increase of temperature. The reaction time of separated combustion is shorter than that of coupled combustion. Under the coupled combustion, the order of NO emissions is: anthracite (AC) > bituminous coal (BC) > lignite (LC) > high chlorine coal (HC), and the order are mainly affected by the content of N in coal. At 800 degrees C, the fuel-N conversion rates of BC, AC, LC, and HC are all the highest, and the rates are 20.52 %, 25.93 %, 14.90 %, and 15.34 %, respectively. As the temperature rises, both volatile-N and char-N emissions show a downward trend. The NO emissions in the separated combustion are greater and the fuel-N conversion rates of BC, AC, LC, and HC are 44.11 %, 47.31 %, 40.44 % and 32.21 %, respectively. The reduction reaction between char and NO plays a crucial role. After the addition of CaO, there is a significant increase in NO release, indicating that CaO has a catalytic effect on the release of volatile-N and char-N. Under the separated combustion, the impact of CaO on NO emissions is relatively minor, and sometimes it leads to a reduction in NO emission. The role of CaO on the NO release is multifaceted.
