Coal pulverizers are used to dry, grind and classify. Drying is achieved as hot gas passes through the pulverizer and removes moisture from the pulverized coal. The hot gases used should have a low oxygen content, this reduces the likelihood of accidental combustion within the mill. It is possible for hot gases to be taken directly from the ...

Pulverizer housing or burner lines are glowing red. Mill fires require immediate attention to prevent damage to the pulverizer and more damaging mill "puffs". Explosions in a pulverized coal system are normally called "puffs.". A mill puff is an explosion in the mill system caused by an explosive combination of coal, air and temperature.
