Abstract

This paper describes the features of the energy coal combusted in a power plant, its impact on energy production, while the possibility of using natural and secondary raw materials to modify the properties of energy coal. All selected types of additives (fluorspar, de-metallized steelmaking slag (DSS), dolomite, and limestone) in admixture of coal have clearly proved their ability to reduce the pour point of the ash in the laboratory experiments. The highest decrease of the temperature at 5 % of the additive was achieved by fluorspar and dolomite from the temperature of 1 593 °C to the temperature of 1 307 °C. In terms of the economy and the availability of the additives the most suitable seems to be DSS.
