SODERN Online Coal Analyzer

Coal CNA - Cross belt Analyser On-line analysers are also widely used for coal, notably in thermal power plants, mines, gasification plants and sometimes in coke plants where measuring the chemical composition of the coal is indispensable for the process. With its electrical neutron source and the PFTNA technology, the Coal CNA made by SODERN is the only analyser on the market capable of directly measuring on-line and in real time all the major elements of coal, including carbon and oxygen. Through this comprehensive elemental analysis, the coal CNA can define the main characteristics of the coal including total ash, calorific value ( BTU) , ash viscosity, volatile elements, etc. With its electrical neutron source and the PFTNA technology, the Coal CNA made by SODERN is the only analyser on the market capable of directly measuring on-line and in real time all the major elements of coal, including carbon and oxygen. Through this comprehensive elemental analysis, the coal CNA can define the main characteristics of the coal including total ash, calorific value ( BTU) , ash viscosity, volatile elements, etc. Unlike Cf252 analysers, the coal CNA can be installed directly on the main conveyor belt as its measurement is not affected by coal density variations and because it can analyse all types of coal. The coal CNA is mainly used for the following applications: - coal quality control - managing pre-homogenisation stockpiles - optimising coal blends to take advantage of lower costs while complying with the required quality levels - continuous adjustment of boiler settings according to the characteristics of the coal
