Zhundong coal is characterized by its high alkali metal content, which can easily lead to slagging and scaling on the heating surfaces of the boiler during combustion. In practical applications, the blending of kaolin is commonly adopted to mitigate these slagging and fouling issues during the combustion of Zhundong coal. This study uses a three-stage, high-temperature drop tube furnace. It selects blending ratios of 0%, 2%, 4%, and 6% to investigate the effects of kaolin blended with different proportions of NaCl on alkali metal adsorption and fine particle formation characteristics. The results showed that as the NaCl blending ratio increased, the peak concentration of particulate matter gradually rose by 542.69 mg/Nm. With the increase of the blending ratio from 2% to 6%, the content of Na in PM rose from 3.79% to 6.79%, and the content of Na in PM increased from 3.77% to 4.85%. The particle morphology became more regular, smooth, and uniform. Kaolin can react chemically with sodium chloride to form a stable aluminum silicate, which can effectively adsorb sodium vapors.

Bulk heterojunctions, formed by blends of donor and acceptor materials, are attractive for developing efficient photocatalysts due to their tunable optical and electrical properties. However, their potential for enhancing organic wastewater treatment through adjustable light absorption bands and intensities remains largely unexploited. In this work, a novel kaolin (KA) based ternary heterojunction photocatalyst PBT1-C:IDT8CN-M:PDI-V/KA (PIV/KA) with strong absorption capability in the spectral range of 470-800 nm was synthesized through the clever combination of donor and acceptor materials and the construction of Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) between IDT8CN-M (I) and PDI-V (V).

Rapid urbanization generates billions of tons of excavated soil waste annually from underground developments, presenting significant sustainability challenges. The objective of this study was to develop a sustainable recycling method for soil waste. Soil waste was calcined to transform its kaolin content into metakaolin.

In this study, the effect of additives on particulate matter (PM) and flue gas emissions during the co-combustion of poultry waste and pine woodchips in air and oxy-fuel combustion conditions was examined. The appropriate additive for the fuel mixture to reduce PM emissions has been selected by a fast screening method based on thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) in oxygen environment. Among the additives CaHPO, MgCO, MnCO, MgPO, kaolin, CaO, and Zn, the most suitable ones were determined as Zn and MgCO.

This paper explores the use of a ternary blended geopolymer concrete (TBGPC) incorporating metakaolin (MK), pond ash (PA), and Alccofine 1203 (AF). Three combinations of MK (25%, 50%, and 75%) with varying proportions of PA and AF were prepared, validating against M grade cement concrete (CC). TBGPC was prepared with an 8 molarity sodium hydroxide, sodium silicate to sodium hydroxide ratio of 2.
