Pyroflow Compact: The next generation CFB boiler
- Pyropower Corp., San Diego, CA (United States)
CFB technology is the modern way to burn coal and other solid fuels. This technology was specifically developed to address today`s needs for fuel flexibility and low emissions. The low furnace temperatures characteristic of CFB technology provide for (a) low NO{sub x} emissions, (b) low SO{sub 2} emissions via simple furnace limestone injection and (c) the ability to fire a wide range of fuels because slagging is avoided. Lack of pulverizers and stack gas scrubbers results in a simple design with low maintenance costs and high availability. Ahlstrom, responsible for many innovations in CFB technology, has recently developed an improved CFB boiler design called the Pyroflow Compact. This new design retains all the benefits of the proven AHLSTROM PYROFLOW{reg_sign}CFB boiler while providing many advantages. This paper will describe the design features of the new Pyroflow Compact design, the advantages of this new design, operating experience, an up-to-date list of projects and Ahlstrom`s future plans for the new design.
