CFB Technology for Biomass Utilization in Heat and Power Generation 5 Jun 2013, Belgrade, Biomass for District Heating Systems in SerbiaVesna Barišić
Presentation outline • Biomass as Energy Source • Advantages of CFB Technology • Challenges in Biomass Combustion • Advanced Biomass CFB (ABC) Technology • Selected Foster Wheeler References
Growth in Biomass Utilization in Energy Production • Incentives against CO2 emissions promote renewable fuels => biomass • Public institutions subsidize and support biomass projects • Regulatory organisms do not release permits to fire fossil fuels investors look into biomass • Traditional biomass (wood-based) is costly and unavailable • Agriculture residues are locally/globally available, and more economic • CFB is IDEAL TECHNOLOGY for large scale power generation for broad range of biomass alone, or co-firing in larger fossil fired power plants!
Advantages of CFB Technology • Fuel flexibility and multi-fuel firing • Simultaneous and/or alternate use of broad range of fuel qualities • Excellent emission performance • DeSOx /DeNOx plants typically not required • High availability & competitive price • Longer boiler life and improved reliability due to low even combustion temperature
CFB Technology Offers Wide Fuel Flexibility • Waste Derived Fuels • Recycled Wood/Paper/ • Plastics • Solid Recovered Fuel • Tire Derived Fuel • Sludge • Pulp and Paper Mill • Municipal • Gas • Oil • Petroleum Coke • Woody Biomass • Bark • Wood Chips • Sawdust • Forest Residues • Willow/Salix • Agricultural Residues • Olive Waste • Straw • Bagasse • Rice Husk • Sunflower • Dried Fruits • etc. • Coal • Anthracite • Bituminous • Subbituminous • Lignite • Waste Coal • Anthracite Culm • Bituminous Gob • Coal Slurry • Oil Shale • Peat CFB Technology Opens the Door to Fuel Flexibilityand Carbon Neutral Fuels
Compared to Fossil Fuels Biomass Ash Chemistry is More Complex
