Industrial operations have many demanding challenges to answer in the installation of energy production equipment in the 1980s. Rising cost of fuel is one of the foremost concerns. The capability t meet sulfur and NO /SUB x/ emissions regulations is another important factor to consider when making decisions. A recent technology developed to meet these challenges is the fluidized bed boiler. It is designed to burn fuel to meet federal sulfur and NO /SUB x/ emissions regulations and to use low-grade, lower-cost energy sources. This paper presents general, atmospheric fluidized bed combustion (AFBC) technolog and, in particular, the operating experience at the 110,000 lb/hr pilot test facility at Tennessee Valley Authority's Shawnee Steam Plant. Also, a discussion is given of the development effort of Babcock Wilcox and the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) in the well-instrumented, 6' X 6' research unit at the BandW Alliance Research Center.
