Title: Use of alternative fuel at Onahama

Abstract

Since 1965, a green-charged reverberatory furnace has been operating at Onahama Smelting and Refining Co., Ltd., Fukushima-Ken, Japan. Increasing oil prices, however, have caused Onahama to introduce alternative fuels, such as coal and waste tires. Problems such as incomplete combustion of waste tires, have almost been resolved; potential problems with dust in the waste heat boilers as a result of pulverized coal burning have not been severe.
