Circulating fluidized bed (CFB) evolution from coal to biomass

Circulating fluidized bed (CFB) evolution from coal to biomass

Circulating fluidized bed (CFB) technology has adapted to market needs over the last thirty years, from high-ash coal to low-calorific-value biomass, and from petcoke with a high sulfur content to waste fuel with a high chlorine content. CFB technology has proven its capability to adapt to changing technical requirements.

Production of sulfuric acid from incineration of pulp mill NCGs

Production of sulfuric acid from incineration of pulp mill NCGs

The production of sulfuric acid from pulp mill NCG enables a bioproduct mill to become nearly self-sufficient in sulfuric acid usage. Sulfate led to the mill's effluent treatment plant is reduced and the sulfate load to nearby waterways is decreased drastically. This innovative plant can produce sulfuric acid and bisulfite simultaneously depending on the requirement. The internal recycling of chemicals can reduce purchasing by 350 truckloads of acid per year.
