Generally, the typical thermal efficiency of incineration boilers is as follows: for a waste heat boiler it is 63%, while that of the steam turbine generator combined system is only 30%. Therefore, when the effective thermal value of the solid waste is not high, it is usually used in the waste heat boiler to produce steam or recycle hot water.

With $2.40 per gallon oil and an 83% efficiency boiler a 1000 Btu of heat costs 2.1 cents. A heat pump using electricity at $ .24 per kWh and operating at a COP of 2.7 can deliver 1000 Btu at a cost of 2.6 cents.

Our previous work has shown that the ash melting behavior of the blend of reed and wheat straw is complex and needs further investigation. The ash melting behavior was studied using different laboratory methods such as simultaneous thermal …
