All types of coal can be burned with acceptably low stack emissions using the fluidized bed combustor (FBC) air heating system. The system utilizes crushed limestone and dolomite sorbent in a fluidized bed where the coal is burned. The sorbent absorbs the SO/sub 2/ and yields a dry calcium sulfate by-product. The FBC system can be easily converted to burn waste wood, paper, or petroleum coke.
