CO-FIRING OF BIOMASS

Co-firing is the combustion of two different types of materials at the same time. The existing infrastructure of coal power plants can be used to burn a new fuel, which may be cheaper or more environmentally friendly. This reduces the demand for coal. In addition, co-firing biomass with coal is a relatively low-cost technology to utilize biomass for electricity production compared to dedicated biomass power plant. (Truong, 2016).
