The company led by Manuel Bartlett Díaz defends the use of coal, saying that the plants operate in line with the current standard NOM-085-SEMARNAT-2011, which establishes the maximum permissible emission levels for fossil fuel-burning plants. Coal-fired plants in Mexico are among the 2,330 plants of such type globally, with the …
2. The hot air is used for transportation of the recirculating coal within the mill and also for transporting the coal from the pulverizer to the furnace. As the coal is continuously reduced in size, the smaller/lighter particles are swept from the bowl by the hot air. Hot air (and cool tempering air) is provided by the primary air fans.
