The transition to burning biomass for renewable energy is becoming increasingly prevalent among utility companies.

This is due to the rising cost of fossil fuels, more strict environmental regulations to reduce emissions, the increasing demand for utilising renewable fuel sources to reduce CO2 output from fossil fuels, and the general desire to operate equipment more efficiently to minimise waste heat.

However, in pursuit of continuous and reliable operation, biomass plant owners/operators may face a number of combustion problems due to the challenges and limitations associated with achieving combustion goals.
