Results of Combustion and Emissions Testing When Co-Firing Blends of Binder-Enhanced Densified Refuse-Derived Fuel (b-dRDF) Pellets and Coal in a 440 MWe Cyclone Fired Combustor: Volume 3, Appendices

    Research output: NRELSubcontract Report

    Abstract

    This research project characterized the effects of burning a Combination of binder-enhanced densified refuse-derived fuel (b-dRDF) pellets and coal in a commercial-scale electrical generating facility. Pelletized b-dRDF has been burned in coal combustors, but only in quantities of less than 3% in large utility systems. This research investigated using b-dRDF in quantities up t o 20%. Through thisresearch, project participants gained operating, technical, and economic viability data that will be critical for the near-term commercial use of b-dRDF.
