Title: Co-firing Wood with Coal by Desmond Smith, BRUKS Rockwood. Hot Topic Hour March 17, 2011, Part 1 of 2

At the March 17, 2011 Mcilvaine Hot Topic Hour, Dr. Desmond Smith, Ph.D. Vice-President at BRUKS Rockwood, Inc, discussed biomass handling and preparation prior to co-firing. Co-firing wood and biomass with coal in a suspension burning boiler requires that the fuel be prepared in specific ways to be effective in the way it performs. Conventional coal preparation machinery does not process biomass. It is necessary to control moisture to allow the machinery that grinds the organic fuel to produce a finely ground product that can be transported and injected pneumatically. The potential of using a gas to gas reheater such as Mitsubishi and Hitachi are using to reduce precipitator temperatures was discussed. A good way to extract heat from the system without paying an energy penalty would be quite attractive. ... Part 1 of 2
