Basics
- This is a category of fuels that use Slurrys
- The main historical/industrial example is coal slurry/coal-water fuel
- This has varying composition, and some have additives
- Mainly it consists of a combustible powder in a liquid (for coal slurry it was water and possible additives)
- Can supposedly be used in ICE's and Turbine Engines (Need to see if this impacts emmisions (more soot etc) or maitnence (abrasion etc)
- Also may require a sort of pilot flame/other burner to "get it going" due to the water making it less flammible
8This also makes it quite stable when stored which could be useful for saftey etc
- RESEARCH NEEDED:
- Can Charcoal Powder work?
- Can liquids other than water be used
- Does the water undergo the Water-Gas Shift Reaction ?
- if not can the engine/fuel be modified to do so
- Can it be used in gassifiers?
- Storage?
