The effect of potassium mineral transformation on ash fusion characteristics during co-gasification of straw biomass and high-silica-alumina coal

Key Points

• Ash fusion characteristics improve with potassium transformation during co-gasification of straw biomass and coal.
• The addition of potassium enhances the melting point properties, promoting better energy efficiency in gasification.
• Assessment using ash fusion tests evaluates different mineral transformations in biomass and coal blends for optimal performance.
• This analysis highlights the critical role of potassium in enhancing co-gasification efficiency for better energy resources.
