Co-firing biomass in coal-fired plants is considered as one of the important technologies for achieving carbon emission reduction. Based on the 660MW ultra-supercritical lignite coal fired plant in Inner Mongolia, this study conducted the first domestic experiment on co-firing cow manure. Cow manure is a typical herbaceous biomass. the first domestic large scale coal-cow manure co-combustion experiment in a 660 MW ultra supercritical lignite-fired power unit in Inner Mongolia was carried out. The ability of coal mill to grind biomass and coal mixed fuels was investigated, and the effect of mixing compacted cow manure on the milling performance was analyzed. Moreover, the effects of co-firing compacted cow manure on the combustion characteristics, unburned carbon content in fly ash, boiler efficiency, and pollutant emissions at different loads were studied. The results indicate that, without the addition of new devices, the change in coal mill current before and after co-firing 15% and 20% compacted cow manure with single coal mill changed slightly. With co-firing 15% compacted cow manure and the coal fineness R200 increasing from 8.3% to 12.4%, the R90 increased from 35.8% to 40.0%. With co-firing 20% compacted cow manure and the coal fineness R200 increasing from 8.3% to 14.4%, the R90 increased from 35.8% to 54.4%. The pressure difference between the coal mill inlet and outlet varied significantly and was closely related to the coal feed rate. With the furnace compacted cow manure co-firing ratio of 2.9% (15% co-firing with coal mill B) and 6.4% (20% co-firing with coal mill B), the changes of exhaust temperature before and after co-firing were both between 1.0~2.5 ℃. With the furnace compacted cow manure co-firing ratio of 7.1% (16.0% co-firing with coal mills B and D) and 8.7% (15% co-firing with coal mills B, C, and D), the exhaust temperature before and after co-firing increased by 3.3 ℃ and 3.6 ℃ at 450 MW and 550 MW, respectively, which was significant. At 250 MW, 450 MW, and 550 MW loads, the change of CO mass concentration was less than 5 mg/m3, and the decrease in boiler thermal efficiency before and after co-firing remained 0.06~0.28 percentage points. Co-firing compacted cow manure can reduce NOx and SO2 emissions. When the mixing ratio of compacted cow manure on two and three coal mills was 15% and 20%, the annual CO2 emission reduction would be 140 312, 210 467, 160 356 and 240 534 tons, respectively.
