Abstract: Interest in circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boilers as a power generation technology has sky-rocketed in recent years because of several advantages this technology offers over conventional boilers, such as increased gas-solid mixing, which results in higher combustion efficiency and the ability to use lower rank fuels. CFB combustors are operated at lower temperatures than conventional thermal power generation combustors, thus reducing NOx emissions, while SO2 emissions can be conveniently controlled through the addition of Ca-based sulfur sorbents within the combustor.
