Abstract:To optimize wood-fired
heat (and power) plants, it is
essential
to rapidly determine the chemical composition of solid biofuels on-site
shortly before combustion. However, the standard procedures for chemical
analysis [inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry
(ICP-OES), inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry] are time-consuming,
expensive and require highly trained personnel. Thus, they are unsuitable
for online fuel analysis. Newly developed, rapid, on-site analysis
methods might enhance… Show more
