Abstract
The interest for renewable fuels has been increased clearly during last
few years.The most important reason for this is the concern of clean
environment.Especially the Kyoto objects set in have forced us to think
realistic and most environmentally friendly ways to reduce CO2 emissions.
Co-firing of biomass-based fuels and recovered fuels with fossil fuels has
found to be one possibility for cleaner power production.Utilization of those
non-CO2 producing fuels has many local effects and advantages.The modern power
production applications based on co-firing technologies ensure a clean method
for power generation with reduced emissions.Especially the reduction of CO2
emissions will be the most critical target in the following years.In addition,
the flexible utilization of local renewable fuels produces new working places
on energy sector.The utilization of biomass-based fuels is not, however,
always unproblematic for power producers.There exist many examples where the
unexpected ash behavior has caused problems for power plant availability.The
problems will be discussed in this paper.
