Abstract
The main unsolved problem of the use of high quality coal-water fuel is its low reactivity in the initial portion of combustion. This problem is a limiting factor for its further development. In this article we describe the development of the most famous coal-water fuel ignition system, their advantages and disadvantages. We have formulated the basic principles of optimum ignition system of artificial composite liquid fuel; identified the main advantages of plasma ignition of fuel; suggested the idea to develop a scheme of plasma ignition artificial composite liquid fuel with automatic control of plasma torch. In this publication, the authors compared the plasma ignition technology and coal-water fuel technology using a cyclone prefurnace heat output of 6.5 MW. It is worth noting that the automatic control of plasma torch will solve the problem associated with the ignition of artificial composite liquid fuel and qualitatively improve the combustion of fuel.
