What Does AFBC Stand For?
AFBC stands for Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion
AFBC, or Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion, is an advanced combustion technology that utilizes a fluidized bed of solid particles, typically in a gaseous state, to enhance the efficiency of fuel combustion. This method promotes uniform temperature distribution and improved fuel mixing, resulting in higher combustion efficiency and reduced emissions. AFBC is particularly effective for burning various types of fuels, including biomass and low-quality coal, making it a versatile solution for sustainable energy production. Its operation at atmospheric pressure allows for simpler equipment design and lower operational costs compared to pressurized systems.
