The literature of FBC solid wastes has been critically evaluated and solid wastes from Canada’s first atmospheric fluidized bed combustion (AFBC) boilers at the Canadian Forces Base (CFB) Summerside, Prince Edward Island have been investigated in order to determine possible uses for AFBC wastes. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electron microprobe, and chemical and physical tests were employed to determine the suitability of the material for pollution control, construction, and other uses. SEM and ancillary techniques have shown that the chemical and physical properties of the bed material and the elutriated streams are significantly different. Agricultural use, pollution control, soil stabilization (where freezing and thawing are not significant problems), asphaltic concrete, and specialized construction applications such as low strength backfill appear to be potential uses for FBC solid wastes.

FactSage6.1 was used to study the phase transformation at high temperature when biomass combustion in a fluidized bed reactor. The results show that eutectic was formed during the reaction process, the eutectics are formed mainly by the reaction between the silica in bed particles and the alkali species in biomass ash. The solid phase transformed to melt layer on the surface of sands particle mainly contains potassium, some calcium and magnesium, and also a few phosphorus and chlorine are found in the melt layer. The result utilizing FactSage equilibrium modeling shown that the distribution ratio of potassium in the gas phase increased with the increase of temperature, moreover, the melt of bed material surface increased when defluidized occurred.

The operation performance of circulating fluidized bed combustion (CFBC) boiler was studied in this paper. The experimental results indicate that the load of CFB boiler has linear relation with bed temperature and bed material height of operation. By multiple regression analysis, the relation of the load of CFB boiler with bed temperature and bed material height of operation can be expressed as a formula. The suitable temperature and the bed material height corresponding to the load of CFB boiler can be found using the formula; the problem of the boiler to be blindly operated can be reduced in practice.

Fluidized bed combustion is capable of utilizing a wider variety of fuels (including solid wastes) than is any other combustion process. Thus, it has the potential for wide application in systems for recovering energy from solid wastes in industry, commercial sites, institutions, forestry, and agriculture to produce electric power, process steam, process heat, and space heating. Three fluidized bed combustion concepts are identified for near-term application: atmospheric fluidized bed boiler, exhaust-heated gas turbine or combined cycle, and closed-cycle gas turbine.
