Background
Coal gasification is an important way for efficient and clean utilization of coal resources and is also the basis for development of the coal chemical industry. At present, the entrained flow gasification technology has become a major development direction due to its advantages of high conversion rate, large production capacity, etc. However, at the same time, the entrained flow gasification time is generally in the order of "seconds" due to the restriction of the operating space of the gasification chamber, and therefore, the strength of the entrained flow gasification is several times or even several tens times higher than that of the fixed bed gasification and the fluidized bed gasification. In order to effectively make up for the defect of insufficient gasification reaction caused by short coal particle gasification residence time, the entrained flow gasification technology adopts fine coal powder (generally the particle size is less than 100 μm to increase the contact area of the gasification reaction) and higher gasification reaction temperature (generally 1300-1500 ℃ to increase the reaction rate). Under the conditions of entrained flow pulverized coal and high-temperature second-level gasification, the influence of the organic matter gasification reactivity of different coal types on entrained flow gasification is almost the same, and the influence of inorganic mineral substances (coal ash) in coal on entrained flow gasification is more obvious. The reason why the coal ash has a remarkable influence on the gasification of the entrained flow bed is that the operating temperature of the entrained flow bed gasification furnace is high, and the ash needs to be discharged in a liquid state slag discharging manner. At present, the entrained flow gasifier such as a GE, a GSP and a Shell at foreign countries, an aerospace furnace, a multi-component slurry, an opposed multi-nozzle and the like at home are all carried out in a liquid state slag discharging mode in large-scale industrial production. Nowadays, the melting characteristics of coal ash are regarded as an important index of coal for entrained flow gasification.
Numerous studies have shown that: melting characteristics of coal ash andthe ash components are closely related, and the chemical composition in the ash mainly comprises SiO2、Al2O3、CaO、Fe2O3、MgO、Na2O、K2O、TiO2And the like. At high temperature, a series of complex physical and chemical reactions occur among the chemical components in the coal ash, and complex crystalline and glassy amorphous substances are formed, so that the coal ash does not have a fixed melting point temperature but a melting temperature range. The melting characteristics (AFT) of coal ash are generally expressed in terms of four temperature points, namely the Deformation Temperature (DT), the Softening Temperature (ST), the Hemispherical Temperature (HT), and the Flow Temperature (FT), with FT being the primary reference index in entrained flow gasification. In the actual production of an entrained flow gasifier, ash liquid slag enters a chilling chamber in a molten state under the combined action of gas flow drag and gravity. In the process, if the operation temperature is far higher than the coal ash FT, the fluidity of ash slag is enhanced, so that the scouring and erosion of the refractory lining material are initiated, and the service life of the gasification furnace is finally shortened; meanwhile, if the operation temperature is close to or lower than the coal ash FT, the viscosity of the ash molten slurry is increased, and then slagging and even blockage in the gasifier are caused, and finally the gasifier is stopped. For this reason, researchers have conducted a great deal of research on FT based on the chemical composition of the coal ash. In the early days, researchers have mainly used regression analysis of data to establish a predictive relationship between soot composition and FT. However, due to the complex composition of coal ash and the large content difference of each component, the coal ash FT and the ash component generally show a nonlinear relationship and the relationship is difficult to be effectively expressed by a mathematical formula. In addition, different occurrence forms and different crystalline state evolution behaviors at high temperature exist in different coal samples of the coal ash, the difficulty of coal ash FT prediction is further increased, and therefore the limitations that prediction accuracy is poor and adaptability is not strong exist in an empirical relational expression obtained by data regression in actual use are caused. In recent years, in order to predict FT more accurately from soot composition, researchers have attempted to build an intelligent algorithm, represented by an artificial neural network, between soot composition and FTThe prediction relationship is established, but the actual regulation and control effect is not ideal due to the defects of black box operation, poor result interpretability, incapability of carrying out accurate mathematical description and the like of the traditional artificial neural network. Therefore, how to predict FT quickly and efficiently has very important practical significance for safe and stable operation of the entrained flow bed gasification slag tapping process.

According to the invention, the coal is subjected to ashing treatment, the chemical composition of the discharged ash is analyzed, and the discharged ash is divided into acid ash, neutral ash and alkaline ash according to the characteristics of the chemical composition. For acid ash, the FT is higher than 1400 ℃, which is not suitable for gasification operation of an entrained flow bed, and the acid ash can be converted into neutral ash by adding coal blending, alkaline auxiliary agents and the like, and then accurately regulated and controlled. For neutral ash, its FT can be precisely regulated by key factor 1. For alkaline ashes, the FT can be precisely regulated to the target temperature by key factor 2. The method provided by the invention not only realizes the aim of fast and efficient regulation and control of the coal ash FT, but also can be carried out in various ways such as coal blending, additive addition, coal blending and additive combined addition and the like in the regulation and control process. In addition, the auxiliary agents used in the invention have the characteristics of wide distribution and low cost.

But the method is only suitable for high-melting-point coal ash with high content of acidic components, and has poor universality.
