Co-firing biomass with fossil fuels in existing power plants is an attractive option for significantly increasing renewable energy resource utilization and reducing CO2 emissions. This chapter mainly discusses three direct co-firing technologies: pulverized-fuel (PF) boilers, fluidized-bed combustion (FBC) systems, and grate-firing systems, which are employed in about 50%, 40%, and 10% of all the co-firing plants, respectively. Their basic principles, process technologies, advantages, and limitations are presented, followed by a brief comparison of these technologies when applied to biomass co-firing. This chapter also

Biomass co-firing with coal exhibits great potential for large scale utilization of biomass energy in the near future. In the present work, energy and exergy analyses are carried out for a co-firing based power generation system to investigate the impacts of biomass cofiring on system performance and gaseous emissions of CO2, NOx, and SOx. The power generation system considered is a typical pulverized coal-fired steam cycle system, while four biomass fuels (rice husk, pine sawdust, chicken litter, and refuse derived

In dieser Arbeit werden verschiedene Prozesse zu Biomassetrocknung für die anschließende Mitverbrennung in kohlebefeuerten Dampfkraftwerken untersucht. Modelle der verschiedenen Trocknungsprozesse, sowie Modelle des Dampferzeugers und des Gesamtprozesses werden erstellt, um die Auswirkungen der Biomassemitverbrennung auf den Kraftwerksprozess zu untersuchen. Mehrere Szenarien für die dezentrale und prozessintegrierte Trocknung werden analysiert und bewertet. In this work, several processes for biomass drying for biomass co firing in coal fired steam power plants are evaluated. Models are developed for each drying

Co-firing tests were conducted in a pilot-scale reactor at Sandia National Laboratories and in a boiler at the Hawaiian Commercial & Sugar factory at Puunene, Hawaii. Combustion tests were performed in the Sandia Multi-Fuel Combustor using Australian coal, whole fiber cane including tops and leaves processed at three different levels (milled only, milled and leached, and milled followed by leaching and subsequent milling), and fiber cane stripped of its tops and leaves and heavily processed through subsequent milling, leaching, and milling

The 1st World Conference and Technology Exhibition on Biomass for Energy and Industry, held in Sevilla in June 2000, brought together for the first time the traditional European Conference on Biomass for Energy and Industry and the Biomass Conference of the Americas, thus creating the largest and most outstanding event in the worldwide biomass sector. The conference elaborated innovative global strategies, projects and efficient practice rules for energy and the environment at a key stage in the industry's development. New concepts

Biomass fuels have long been accepted as useful renewable energy sources, especially in mitigating greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions. Fossil fuel-based power plants make up over 30% of the GHG emissions in Alberta, Canada. Displacement of fossil fuel-based power through biomass co-firing has been proposed as a near-term option to reduce these emissions. In this research, co-firing of three biomass feedstocks (i.e., whole forest, agricultural residues and forest residues) at varying proportions with coal as well as with natural gas in

There are many successful commercial co-firing installations, however various constraints can be encountered, especially in direct co-firing mode (which is the most common among co-firing systems), and with tendency to increase biomass/coal ratio, and use low quality biomass. These constraints can include handling, storage, milling and feeding problems, deposit formation (slagging and fouling), agglomeration, corrosion, erosion, and ash utilization issues. Most of the co-firing challenges originate from biomass properties. The problems associated with co-firing systems can be addressed by

The application of advanced technologies employing combustion/co-firing of coal andbiomass is seen as a promising approach to minimising the environmental impact andreducing CO2 emissions of heat/power production. The existing uncertainties in thecombustion behaviour of such fuel mixes and the release of alkali metals with otherelements during the combustion (or co-firing) of many bio-fuels are some of the mainissues that are hindering its application. The potential presence of high levels of alkalichlorides and low levels of sulfates in the
