Coal and other solid fuels will continue to play an important role in cement making. Although modern process control and good engineering can and should do much to prevent explosions, some means of protection will remain necessary as a last resort in the case of technical failure of process control or plants.

Abstract. A novel controller for coal circulation and pulverized coal flow in a coal mill is proposed. The design is based on optimal control theory for bilinear systems with additional integral action.

The conventional control is utilized as a reference to compare the performance improvement on ramp rates of coal fired power plants using nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC). The paper is structured as follows: In Section 2 the nonlinear model equations are derived and the control objectives are defined.

The mills used for coal grinding and drying are either tumbling mills or roller mills. Tumbling Mills. The tube mill or ball mill is especially suitable for the indirect firing system, i.e., where there is no direct connection between mill and kiln and where the pulverized and dried coal is stored in an intermediate bin of ample capacity. Thus the mill can be operated economically …
