STUDY OF THE COMBUSTION OF PELLETS AND RDF IN A SMALL BOILER-STOVE PLANT
ABSTRAKT
The present work is an approach to the analysis of cofiring systems with pelletized forest and pelletized refused-derived fuel (RDF). RDF is obtained from municipal solid wastes and contains a biomass fraction and a nonorganic fraction (plastic). As a first step, characterization of both fuels is given to define their properties. A special feeding system is also used to improve the stove plant and to allow distribution that maintains a constant rate between both fuels. The high ash content of RDF promotes the occurrence of sintered compounds and worsening of the combustion process (less contact between fuel and oxidizer). An increase in emissions of pollutants (especially CO) and a decrease in yield have also been observed. Emissions of NOx remain quite stable and the SO2 concentration is not relevant. Nevertheless, the joint behavior in this kind of boiler system is possible and the viability of the process can be studied in later works, always in a limited work area that can be defined as 0.5 < mP < 1.7; 0 < %RDF < 10; 1.6 < n < 1.8.
