Co-Firing Biomass With Coal Utilizing Water Cooled Vibrating Grate Technology
Published: Wednesday, September 1, 1999
Co-firing biomass with coal has been implemented successfully for many years using conventional combustion grate technology for use in the pulp and paper industry for systems ranging in size up to 70 MW. With the application of water cooled vibrating grates, biomass co-firing can be applied for larger utility size systems. This paper discusses benefits both more»

Vibrating Grate Stokers for the Sugar Industry
Published: Tuesday, December 1, 1998
Some 15 years ago in the United States, it became apparent that traveling grate and water-cooled pinhole grate stokers were no longer able to cope with the increasing demands of the biomass burning industry, particularly pulp and paper. These demands included lower excess air firing for efficiency and emission control, higher boiler capacities, and greater more»
