Abstract
- The combustion behavior and gas product characteristics of coal gangue (CG) and peanut shell (PS) in air atmosphere were studied by thermogravimetry-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (TG-FTIR). Artificial neural network (ANN) method was used to establish the optimal prediction model of CG and PS co-combustion. The heating rate of TG-FTIR experiment was set to 10 °C/min, 20 °C/min and 30 °C/min. The mass fractions of PS in the experimental samples were 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%. Some functional groups in the gas products were detected by Fourier transform infrared spectrometer. Moreover, the apparent activation energy (E) was calculated by Flynn-Wall-Ozawa (FWO) and Kissinger-Akahira-Sunose (KAS). The activation energies of CG and PS mixture combustion are significantly lower than that of pure substance. ANN models have been established to predict the relationship between mass loss and experimental conditions. By comparing errors and correlation coefficients, it is found that the ANN20 model is optimal. Image 1 • First study on application of ANN model to co-combustion of CG and PS. • The predicted data of ANN were in good agreement with the experimental results. • The gas products of co-combustion were detected. • Activation energy was estimated from the KAS and FWO methods. • ANN20 is the best model for predicting CG and PS combustion.
