Heat Production in Considering Boilers and their Influence on CO and NOx Emission Values

Abstract

At present, there is a tendency to make greater use of hot water heat sources for the combustion of solid fuels, such as lump wood, coal, coke, instead of heat sources for the combustion of natural gas. This tendency is due to the high price of natural gas as well as the availability of cheaper solid fuel. In many cases, as part of saving on heating costs, respectively. as part of waste disposal, municipal waste of various compositions is also co-incinerated with solid fuel. This co-incineration entails increased emissions, such as CO (carbon monoxide), NOx (nitrogen oxides), TZL (particulate matter), PM10, HCl (hydrogen chloride), PCDD/Fs (polychlorinated dibenzodioxins and dibenzofurans), PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls) and others which, with a relatively large number of heat sources for the combustion of solid fuel in municipalities, have a significant impact on the quality of the environment in the locality. Between the population and representatives of the state administration as in Žilina, Thus, the Moravian-Silesian Region also lacks awareness of how the environment is degraded due to the co-incineration of solid fuel and municipal waste. At present, there is no qualitative comparison of the effect of combustion of solid fuel and municipal fuel waste to the emission burden on the environment. There are no real measured emission factors for determining the production of the above emissions from the co-incineration of solid fuels and a certain amount of municipal waste. The combustion of fossil fuels and the consequent occurrence of harmful emissions on the environment are therefore becoming a central theme of current heating technology.
