SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING BED AGGLOMERATION IN FLUIDIZED-BED BOILERS

摘要

The present disclosure relates to fluidized-bed boilers and methods for controlling bed agglomeration that can occur when biomass containing high amounts of phosphorus is used as fuel. Iron-containing compounds, such as iron oxide, are added to the fluidized bed to tie up the phosphorus in a form that will not react under typical operating conditions for fluidized-bed boilers.
