FBC Technology and the Environmental Challenge includes 37 papers from 14 different countries, reviewing fluidized bed combustion developments worldwide and reflecting concerns about the potential impact of fossil fuel combustion upon the environment. Topics included are: Large plant experience Fundamentals - fluidization and emissions science Emissions performance Advanced cycles The development and demonstration of systems with good environmental performance for both industrial and utility applications, and the current international development programmes for advanced high efficiency clean coal fluidized bed utility systems, are covered in detail. Presenting the latest developments in the field, FBC Technology and the Environmental Challenge will be invaluable to all engineers, scientists, manufacturers and users of fluidized bed combustion systems. FBC Technology and the Environmental Challenge contains the papers presented at the Institute of Energy conference, London, UK, 10-11 December 1991.
