Review of technologies for co-firing of biomass and coal at power plants of the world (in Russian)
Zhovmir N., Geletukha G., Zhelyezna T. "Industrial Heat Engineering", N2, 2006, p.75-85
Modern technologies for co-combustion of biomass and coal are analyzed. Data on existing in the world power plants which realize different co-combustion technologies are collected. New co-combustion technologies, which have been still under investigation, are reviewed, for example, co-combustion of biooils with coal or natural gas. Prospects for Ukraine as for the introduction of co-combustion of biomass and fossil fuels are considered. It is concluded that Ukraine has all the necessary prerequisites for gradual introduction of these technologies. It will give an opportunity to reduce consumption of expensive fossil energy carriers and will improve environmental performance of power plants. ( Download .pdf )
