Investigating synergistic interaction of bamboo and torrefied bamboo with coal during cocombustion.

To investigate if there is synergistic interaction between bamboo with coal, or between torrefied bamboo with coal during cocombustion, bamboo and torrefied bamboo separately were respectively uniformly mixed with coal and the weight percentage of bamboo or torrefied bamboo in the mixture were 10%, 20%, 30%, and 40%. The combustion behaviors of blends were characterized using thermogravimentric analyzer at heating rates of 10°C/min, 20°C/min,...
