Abstract: The combustion experiment of Hunan bituminous coal was carried out under air atmosphere with the final temperature of 1150 ℃ by thermogravimetric analysis.Different proportions of CaO, Fe2O3, NaCl and MgO in coal was adding to explore the influence of metal compounds on the combustion characteristics of coal. The experimental results show that the ignition temperature can be reduced, and the combustion stability can be improved and the combustion efficiency can be improved by adding a certain amount of metal compounds into the pulverized coal. The metal compounds CaO, Fe2O3, NaCl and MgO have different catalytic effects on the combustion of pulverized coal. The addition of NaCl and Fe2O3 makes the combustion of pulverized coal violent, which is conducive to the burnout of pulverized coal. The effect of NaCl on comprehensive catalytic combustion is the best,and the ignition temperature of the sample with NaCl decreases about 22 ℃.The identification index of Cb ,G and Hj increase with the decrease of MgO percentage, and the flammability is better. The addition of CaO and MgO will increase the ignition temperature of pulverized coal, and the combustion stability and burnout effect of pulverized coal will become worse, and the influence of CaO is greater than that of MgO. The catalytic combustion effect is best when the NaCl content is 8%.
