HIGH SULFUR FUEL PELLET WITH REDUCED SO2 EMISSION

摘要

The present description relates to a method and system for generating a fuel from high sulfur fuel waste materials having a reduced SO2 emission. In one example, the fuel may include petroleum coke, a biomass constituent, and an alkali substituent. Further in another example, the fuel may include iron oxide catalyst increasing the capture of SO2.

主权项

1. A fuel comprising:
petroleum coke, having a sulfur content up to 5.5%; a biomass constituent; an alkali constituent adapted to capture SO2 emissions by reacting with sulfur of the petroleum coke upon burn of the fuel; and an iron oxide catalyst reducing SO2 emissions to less than 10 percent;
wherein the petroleum coke, the biomass constituent, the alkali constituent, and the iron oxide catalyst are combined to form a fuel with decreased SO2 emissions at temperatures at or above 750 C.
