Air and oxy-combustion characteristics of wooden biomass in CFB were supplemented by the thermogravimetric and differential thermal analyses (TGA/DTA). The results of conducted CFB and TGA tests show that the composition of the oxidizing atmosphere strongly influences the combustion process of biomass fuels. Replacing N2in the combustion environment by CO2caused slight delay (higher ignition temperature and lower maximum mass loss rate) in the combustion of wooden biomass. The combustion process in O2/CO2mixtures at 30% and 40% O2is faster and shorter than that at lower O2concentrations.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Oxy-combustion of biomass in a circulating fluidized bed}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/105671/PDF/02_paper.pdf}, doi={10.1515/aoter-2016-0002}, keywords={biomass, Salix viminalis, oxy-fuel combustion, CFB, TG/DTA}, }
