The objective of this program is to develop an advanced coal- combustion system capable of being retrofitted to industrial boilers originally designed for firing natural gas, distillate, and/or residual oil. Through the use of beneficiated coal fuel and advanced combustion technology, the program was to produce a combustion system which is reliable, simple to operate, and incorporates significant reductions in NO{sub x}, SO{sub x}, and particulate emissions over a base coal case.
