| Summary: | Coal is one of the most important energy sources in the world. According to forecasts, by 2020, the share of coal in the global energy sector will reach 50%, primarily due to the very likely reduction in oil and gas consumption, as well as the revision of the policy on the development of nuclear energy. For thermal power plants with pulverized-coal boilers, a problematic economic and technological issue is ignition and lighting, carried out with high-reaction fuel - gas, fuel oil, and diesel fuel. The cost of this fuel is much higher than the cost of coal itself, which means that the introduction of new technologies that allow excluding petroleum products from the energy processes that take place at the CHP plant is topical [1]. In this paper, the technology of electrochemical ignition, which is an alternative to gas and fuel oil ignition of power boilers, is studied.
