The design and development of a suspension burner system for particulate forestry and agricultural residues

Abstract

This bulletin details research and development work by the Process Development and Storage Engineering Department of the Natural Resources Institute on combustion of particulate forestry and agricultural wastes in a cyclonic suspension burner with a process heat output of 250-500 MJ/h. An application for burning wood residues was identified and this work led to the successful development of a timber drying system. This system has now been tested overseas and is available commercially.
