In order to utilize the low-concentration gas directly discharged into the atmosphere from 1.1% to 1.50% in coal mine production, the heat storage and oxidation equipment of gas was improved, and the heat storage and safety of gas under high-temperature environment were tested. The experimental results show that the regenerative oxidation system could provide a high-temperature oxidation environment of 1000°C for gas oxidation after changing the heating mode and enhancing the sealing property. The pressure curves of air and gas in the burner were similar. With the increase of gas concentration, the pressure difference between inlet and outlet tended to increase linearly with a minimum pressure differential of 4 kPa (air) and a maximum pressure differential of 11 kPa (1.50% gas). The internal pressure was relatively stable without an instantaneous pressure surge or explosion. The result of this study provides a reference for further research on the low-concentration gas regeneration oxidation unit at high temperatures.

To achieve efficient utilization of low-concentration mine gas, reduce resource waste, and alleviate environmental pollution, high-temperature oxidation of low-concentration gas at a concentration range of 1.00% to 1.50% that is directly discharged into the atmosphere during coal mine production was oxidized to recover heat for reuse. The gas oxidation equipment was improved for the heating process, and the safety of low-concentration gas oxidation under high-temperature environment was evaluated. Experimental results showed that the reactor could provide a 1000 ℃ high-temperature oxidation environment for gas oxidation after installing high-temperature resistant ceramics. The pressure variation curves of the reactor with air and different concentrations of gas were similar. Due to the thermal expansion, the air pressure slightly increased and then returned to normal pressure. In contrast, the low-concentration gas exhibited a stable pressure response in the high-temperature environment of 1000 ℃. The outlet pressure was significantly greater than the inlet pressure, and the pressure difference between the inlet and outlet exhibited a trend to increase with the gas concentration. The explosion limit varied with the temperature and the blend with oxidation products. The ratio of measured gas pressure to air pressure after oxidation was below the explosion criterion, indicating that the measured concentration gas is still safe after the shift of explosion limit, which provides a safe concentration range for efficient use of low-concentration gas in the future.
