Reducing CO Emissions with OFA System Upgrades, Part 1

Operating with an effective overfire air (OFA) system is key to optimizing the combustion process in a biomass boiler and reducing its carbon monoxide (CO) emissions. This post will discuss the basics of combustion optimization and OFA system design. Part 2 will focus on the measured reductions in CO from
