Summary of Studies on Emissions of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) and Nitrous Oxide (N2O) and Carbon Monoxide (CO) from Waste Coal Fluidized Bed Combustors (FBCs)
FBC plants operate at lower temperatures than conventional coal power plants. [2,3,4,5] FBC plants use low oxygen (excess air) levels (to reduce NOx formation). [2] Low oxygen levels and the lower temperature range used by CFB plants increases emissions of carbon monoxide. [2] The lower operating temperature leads to far higher emissions of nitrous oxide…
