With the increase of the reducing gas injection rate, the temperature of the pulverized coal particles in the early stage was significantly lower than that of the TBF, as shown in Fig. 3b. This occurs because the lowtemperature reducing gas suppresses the temperature increase of the pulverized coal, while the gas reacts with the oxygen in the hot air to increase the gasphase temperature.

Modern boilers powder the coal to a very fine dust so that while burning, it is almost like a fluid stream. The size of the coal particles is in the range of 75 microns.
