Abstract:The thermogravimetric analysis method is adopted to conduct experimental analysis and thermodynamic research on the thermogravimetric characteristics of wheat straw at three heating rates of 10℃/min,20℃/min and 30℃/min.The results show that the pyrolysis and combustion process of wheat straw presents five stages:water loss and drying,energy accumulation,rapid pyrolysis,slow combustion and complete combustion.The ignition temperature(Te)of wheat straw is between 274 and 279℃,the combustion stability discrimination index(Rw)is 0.37~1.58 mg/(min·℃2),and the volatile analysis characteristic index(Rv)is 6.39×10-5~15.40×10-5 mg/(min·℃2).The comprehensive combustion characteristic index(P)is 1.84×10-9~11.04×10-9 mg2/(min2·℃3).The weight loss is mainly concentrated in the rapid pyrolysis and slow combustion stages.Analyzed by the Coats-Redfern method,the reaction orders of the two stages are 2.0 and 0.5 respectively,and the average activation energies(E)are 68.1 kJ/mol and 6.6 kJ/mol respectively.
