Technology options for large-scale solid-fuel combustion
Abstract
In this chapter, technology options for solid biomass and waste fuel utilisation in large-scale combustion plants are presented with the focus on fuel flexible technologies allowing multi-fuel operation. Fuel flexibility (the ability to use various fuels) protects power plant investment from changes in competitiveness between different fuels, which can be caused, for example, by changes in legislation. In multi-fuel operation (burning various fuels at the same time), synergies between different types of fuels can be exploited allowing higher generation efficiency also from lower-quality ...
