微波加热强化煤泥低温干燥的机理研究

The dehydration and drying of coal slime is a key method to enhance its quality. The increase of processing time and energy consumption due to the decreasing drying rate at the falling-rate drying period have become a bottleneck for the effective and fast drying of coal slime by the traditional drying technology. In this project, a new method was put forward. This method is to adopt the traditional heating in the front zone and microwave heating at the rear to enhance the low-temperature drying of slime. The internal heating mechanism can be applied to improve the heat and mass transfer of moisture in the slime, which is promising to increase the heating rate at the falling-rate drying period with the assistance of microwave, and then promotion of coal slime drying effect can be achieved. The feasibility of this method was verified by our previous research work. Based on the acquisition of physical, chemical and structural properties of the coal slime, and the occurrence mode and distribution pattern of moisture, we can obtained the drying curves at different heating mode and operating parameters, and the critical moisture content of slime. And then, the moisture type and migration process under microwave enhanced drying condition can be revealed; the effect of microwave drying process on the coal quality, moisture suck-back property and equilibrium moisture content of the dried sample can also be explained; the interaction of microwave with mineral composition in the slime and its effect on the temperature rise and drying process can also be investigated. Finally, a drying model can be established to predict the temperature field and moisture migration pattern. The project can provide support for the exploration of new drying methods and the improvement of basic drying theory of coal slime.
