Fossil fuels, astray used for electricity generation and heating, emit greenhouse gases which should be minimized according to the most recent environmental legislation. The usance of significant fuels of biogenic origin could contribute, to some extent, towards the aim of cut greenhouse gas emissions. Within this book, special attention has been condition to biomass co-firing with coal as it has the highest potential for commercial application in large-scale units, whereas according to the authors interpretation, combustion and gasification are more promising for units of small to medium scale. In chapter 1, cay questions arising from biomass availability and supply are discussed. A detailed depth psychology of solid agricultural biomass feedstock in EU27 summarizes the relevant data, which influence the availability and future supply of this feedstock for energy and fuel production.
The European Standards for the specifications of solid biofuels are presented in chapter 2. Chapter 3 provides an overview of all technical issues for biomass-coal cofiring in boilers designed exclusively for coal (mainly pulverized coal) combustion. Biomass-coal co-combustion represents a low-risk, low-cost, sustainable, renewable energy option that promises an effective near-term reduction in CO 2 , SO X , and often NO X emissions, as well as several societal benefits. A step ahead on co-firing development is covered in chapter 4 in which the co-utilization of solid recovered fuels (SRF) with coal is extensively reviewed. SRF are solid fuels prepared from high-calorific fractions of non-hazardous...If you want to get a full essay, order it on our website: Ordercustompaper.com
