Wood-fired boilers have been developed in Sweden which have high boiling efficiencies and which are capable of burning low-calorific, high-ash content, such as sludge from mill processes and waste water treatment, as well as reclaimed mixtures of bark, sludge, and other waste materials. Design features of the boilers include: sloping grates with drying zones for wet fuel; lower furnaces with drying and burn-out arches; supply of secondary and tertiary air with deep furnace penetration; a mechanically reciprocating foot grate; and upgrading of instrumentation and controls. The working principles of such boilers and results of their industrial testing are presented.
