The Negative Effect of Biomass Co-combustion on Desulfurization of Combustion Products from Fluid Steam Generators
Keywords:
co-combustion, biomass, flue gas desulfurization, coal, limestoneAbstract
Laboratory research involving three different limestones, four solid fossil fuels and nine types of biomass has shown that biomass significantly reduces the reactivity of calcined limestone in desulfurization of combustion products. This negative effect can be attributed to coating of CaO with various products of biomass and coal combustion.
