Environmentally-Oriented Modernization of Power Boilers explains how to retrofit and upgrade power boilers in ageing thermal and CHP plants, putting a particular emphasis on pulverized fuel boilers (PF). The work provides direct avenues to higher boiler efficiency, harmful emissions reduction, fuel grinding system modernization, fuel flexibility, boiler operation flexibilization, reduced corrosion, erosion and fouling. In addition, the book explores how to integrate emission reduction systems into boiler operations. The content is ideal for engineers, power plant management and graduate students. Presents the most important solutions relating to boiler emissions compliance in a clear and accessible wayHelps to increase the performance efficiency of boilers using flexible fuels and operational flexibilizationSupports a reduction of harmful phenomena such as corrosion, erosion and foulingIncludes a careful selection of realized modernizations, including pitfalls and best practice discussions INDICE: 1.
