Combustion of Refined Renewable Biomass Fuel (RRBF) in a bubbling fluidized bed

Renewable Energy, 2018, vol. 124, issue C, 84-94

Abstract: The outlet of a mechanical biological treatment plant for mixed municipal solid waste is further processed to produce RRBF (Refined Renewable Biomass Fuel) within the frame of the EU Life+ project MARSS (Material Advanced Recovery Sustainable Systems). The input for the MARSS processing is dry and has small particle sizes below 40 mm, which makes it impossible to be burnt in standard grate firing systems. The main purpose of this study was to examine whether RRBF is a suitable fuel for bubbling fluidized bed combustion for the decentralised production of combined heat and power.
