Co-combustion of mixed plastics with coal in a bubbling fluidized bed incinerator

摘要

Test results are reported from the co-combustion of mixed household plastics (4 % chlorine) with coal (0,5 % S). The trials were performed in a bubbling fluidized bed low-pressure steam boiler. It is concluded that both inorganic and organic total specific emissions (g/MJ) are lower for mixed household plastics than for coal. A fluidized bed plant equipped with efficient dust and carbon monoxide control can meet the most stringent foreseeable regulations for PCDD/PCDF emissions
