The book emphasizes the operation and experiences of commercial FBC systems and analyzes the variety of FBC designs available, discusses operations and maintenance concerns, provides economic comparisons with boilers fired by natural gas, oil, or direct coal combustion, and explores the advantages of combining cogeneration with FBC. Also covered are financing considerations from both traditional financing sources and third party developers.
