In response to the deposition problem in biomass-fired boiler, inert addictive was tested to inhibit the possibility of coking. The deposition samples collected from final and primary superheater of biomass-fired CFB (circulating fluidized bed) boiler were grinded into fine powder. The inhibitive ability of additive was tested by mixing the deposition sample with different proportions of inhibitor under high temperature. By means of scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and other analytical procedures, the properties of the samples with inhibitor such as microstructure, composition were studied. The inhibitor was also introduced to the industrial biomass CFB boiler to verify its inhibition effect on superheater deposition. Unfortunately, the effect of adding inhibitor in industrial boiler is not certain, though the inhibitor added to the samples is obviously effective in weakening coking in the laboratory scope.
