Abstract: AbstractCo-combustion of coal and biomass offers a promising solution to reduce fossil fuel dependency. This study employs reactive force-field molecular dynamics (ReaxFF MD) to investigate the microscopic effects of temperature and mixing ratio on Zhundong coal–lignin co-combustion. Elevated temperatures significantly enhance the conversion from large molecules to smaller gaseous products (CO2, H2O), suppressing tar formation. Higher coal ratios (3:1, 2:1) favor reduced tar yield and increase[...]
Our summary: This study uses ReaxFF molecular dynamics to analyze the co-combustion of Zhundong coal and lignin. Elevated temperatures and higher coal ratios improve gaseous product yields while reducing tar formation.
