Pulverized Coal Explosions in the U.S. Utility Industry

Laboratory experiments were performed in full scale test rigs that allowed triggering and monitoring coal system explosions on demand. Ignition events remaining within the coal pipe created only weak pressure rise, while ignition events within a simulated pulverizer volume created explosions exceeding 70 bar gage (1015 psig).

Coal Grinding Systems

Fires or explosions most likely occur during startup and shutdown of a coal mill system. If a small amount of coal remains in the mill after it is shut down, it slowly increases in temperature. If the pulverized coal undergoes spontaneous heating and the coal mill is restarted with hot embers present, an explosion or fire is possible.
