Abstract

To study the combustion characteristics of the polyethylene (PE) particle and coal powder at blast temperature of the blast furnace, the contents of CO and CO2 of off-gas during the combustion of PE particle and coal powder at the 1 200 °C and 1 250 °C were measured using carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide infrared analyzer, and then the corresponding combustion ratio was calculated. The results showed that when the temperature is high, the combustion speed of PE and coal powder is high and the corresponding combustion ratio is high. Whereas, the combustion speed and ratio of PE are much higher than those of coal powder.
