Project description

This project has improved the process and methodology knowledge about dynamic operation and stability of biomass-fired units. The need for a high degree of regulation meant that project focus was shifted to include all burner-fired units, which can contribute to improved system stability. The project has improved generic knowledge about low-load operation of Benson boilers significantly. In terms of the process, evaporator stability was modelled and analysed, and the model integrated with the immediate process parts in a dynamic model. Simulation results look promising, and it makes good sense to continue work in this area.
