1 Characteristics of Biomass Combustion in a CFB Boiler Jong-Min Lee, Dong-Won Kim, Jae-Sung Kim Green Growth Laboratory Korea Electric Power Research Institute Needs Limited supply of domestic anthracite Fuel Type Coal Consumption Boiler Type Tonghae CFB Boiler Anthracite coal 4,900 ton/d (1.47 mil. ton/d) Circulating Fluidized Bed Capacity 400 MWe (200 MWe 2) Steam Capacity 1,300 ton/h (660 ton/h 2) Operation Unit 1: from Sept. 30, 1998 Unit 2: from Sept. 30, 1999 Year OR(%) Soaring of coal price CO2 reduction 1

2 Problems are... Pouring money into power plant, and emission of CO 2! Solution is... Fuel Diversification Low grade coal Biomass Objectives Evaluation of Feasibility of & Biomass for Complementary Fuel in a Commercial CFB Boiler. 2
