How Do You Pulverize Coal?

Coal is crushed to desired fineness between spheres or cylindrical rollers. After that, air from the boiler is heated to around 330°C (650°F). The raw coal is then fed into the pulverizer where it is ground into fine coal particles.

What are the Advantages of Pulverized Coal?

Pulverized coal produces a larger amount of heat than traditional coal. This leads to more fuel-efficient and easier-to-burn low-grade fuel sources.

This type of coal fineness increases the surface area for burning. This leads to an increased combustion rate and shelf life of the coal. Pulverized coal is typically used in power plants heated in fired furnaces.

Coal Pulverizers for Solid Fuel

Williams’ Vertical Roller Mill Pulverizers are perfect for coal and pet coke applications. These normally require fine to ultra-fine particle sizes for direct firing into boilers, kilns, and screen plates. This type of coal pulverizer mill uses centrifugal force to grind solid fuels while maintaining low operating costs.

Single Roll Crushers

Williams Single Roll Crushers have a simple and economical heavy-duty construction that helps ensure a long lifetime. The crushing surfaces operate at a fixed distance apart, helping to keep product size consistent. Both oversized pieces and fines are minimized, making the Williams Single Roll Crushers great coal crushers for many applications.

Rigid Arm Breakers

The Williams Rigid Arm Breakers are well suited for softer friables, which allows them to be used as a coal crusher. The Rigid Arm Breaker features a unique design by using rigid hammers, rather than swing-mounted. This makes it the ideal machine for large or smaller-scale coal size-reduction applications.
