Ash deposition behavior of cynara–coal blends in a PF pilot furnace

Corrosion in biomass combustion: A materials selection analysis and its interaction with corrosion mechanisms and mitigation strategies

“…(23) was also observed by other authors [94][95][96][97]. Zheng et al [98] have also confirmed the viability of this co-combustion strategy.…”

Short Review on the Origin and Countermeasure of Biomass Slagging in Grate Furnace

“…Leaving biomass in the cropland for a while after the harvest can achieve part of the washing effect, but manual washing certainly has better effect and higher economy. Carrillo et al (2014) noted that a 3.2% increase in MJ/kg occurred after a single wash under 20°C compared with the untreated check and a 63% decrease of alkali content through three steps of washing. However, the addition of water into the biomass as pretreatment is debatable because of the energy input required to dry the biomass prior to combustion.…”

Pollutant emissions released during sewage sludge combustion in a bubbling fluidized bed reactor

“…The only exception is the emission of HCl, which is higher for the combustion of Cynara (Gominho et al, 2018) than for sludge combustion due to the higher content of chlorine in the lignocellulosic biomass. In fact, the chlorine content reported in the literature for Cynara cardunculus L. varies between 0.78 and 1.76 wt.% db (González et al, 2004;Fernéndez Llorente et al, 2006;Aho et al, 2008;Bartolomé et al, 2010), whereas for sewage sludge the content of Cl ranges from 0.04 to 0.29 wt.% db (Arena and di Gregorio 2014;Folgueras et al, 2015;Ronda et al, 2019).…”
