Title: Design and experience with utility-scale CFB boilers

Conference ·
OSTI ID:269113

Circulating fluidized bed (CFB) boilers have been in operation for many years in industrial steam and power generation applications, primarily in the 50-100 MWe range. In the past few years, however, several utility-scale CFB boilers have entered service. The scale-up of the Foster Wheeler Pyropower, Inc. CFB boilers has proceeded smoothly, and today FWPI CFB boilers up to 180 MWe are in operation, two 235 MWe boilers are now under construction, and other large units are in the design stage.
