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)
  • 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?
