Some Unique Management Characteristics of Residues from Atmospheric Fluidized-bed Combustion

Investigation to identify potential problems in the handling and disposal of coal-fuelled atmospheric fluidized-bed combustion residues, emphasizing thepractical aspects and the bulk properties of the residues. A summary ofexisting published knowledge is given, then a summary of field experience, focusing on the thermodynamics of the exothermic reaction ofcalcuim oxide and water. Various methods of waste handling are consideredand general recommendations are proposed.
