| Coal and Biomass Fuel Quality
|
This workshop will address the impact of coal and biomass quality on
combustion, slagging, fouling, corrosion, ash disposal, catalyst
poisoning, emissions and plant performance. Understanding these issues
is critical to plant availability, capacity increases, heat rate,
maintenance, and costs. The workshop will focuses on end-results and
application of fundamental information to minimize fuel quality impacts
on operations and the environment. Various technologies, predictive
techniques, and models will be reviewed that have been used to mitigate
slagging/fouling and aid in the selection of fuels. The workshop will
focus primarily on coal and biomass fuels, but will also briefly address
other fuel types such as petroleum coke.
