Abstract
This chapter introduces the principles of fuel blending; it begins by explaining why fuels are blended. The purposes for blending may be technical or economic. When fuels are blended, the process modifies the chemical characteristics of the fuel being fed to the boiler or kiln. This modification is particularly significant with respect to fuel volatility. The impacts of blending on fuel properties, including ash chemistry and corrosion are examined. The different firing methods are discussed. The consequences of fuel blending on total system performance are explained.
