What Does CFB Stand For?

CFB stands for Circulating Fluidized Bed

CFB, or Circulating Fluidized Bed, is a type of industrial reactor used for the efficient combustion of solid fuels. It utilizes a continuously circulating bed of granular material, typically sand, which is suspended by a flow of gas. This design enhances mixing and heat transfer, allowing for improved fuel utilization and reduced emissions. CFB technology is commonly employed in power generation and waste-to-energy applications due to its ability to operate at lower temperatures and its flexibility in handling a variety of feedstocks.
