The TG analysis shows that the addition of FeCl3 can reduce the ignition point of clarain and fusain from Guangxi and also the raw coal from Xinwen. The combustion-supporting effect of FeCl3 on the clarain is quite obvious, with the maximum reduction of ignition point reaching 90 ℃ and that of the burn-out point reaching 95 ℃. What is more, it can make the coal burn more completely. The relationship between the amount of FeCl3 and the ig- nition point was also investigated and the optimum amount of FeCl3 obtained. When FeCl3 is added in doses of 6%, 4%, 2%, and 1%, the reduction of ignition point is proportional to the amount of agent. If 6% of FeCl3 is added, the combus- tion-supporting effect is very significant; while if only 1% of FeCl3 is added, the combustion-supporting effect can be negligible. Therefore the optimum amount of FeCl3 is between 3% and 6% for achieving an obvious combus- tion-supporting effect. In addition, the combustion supporting mechanism of FeCl3 was also studied, which is the com- bined action of chloride and iron in the compound.展开更多
