Optimized afterburning for maximum fuel efficiency
The A TEC Post Combustion Chamber (PCC) is an innovative post-combustion solution installed in the upper section of the calciner . It specifically improves the mixing of combustion gases, tertiary air, and substitute fuels that have not yet been completely burned. The optimized flow pattern creates ideal conditions for efficient post-combustion.
The improved mixing increases contact between oxygen and fuel particles, enabling even hard-to-burn or coarser alternative fuels to achieve significantly better burn-out. At the same time, CO spikes are reduced and combustion quality is sustainably improved.
The extended effective reaction time in the upper section of the calciner further optimizes the combustion of the substitute fuel before the process gases enter the first cyclone. This results in higher energy efficiency, more stable process control, and a reduction in unburned fuel particles.
Another key advantage of the A TEC Post Combustion Chamber is its easy integration into existing plants. It can be installed in place of the existing gooseneck, making it a cost-effective retrofit solution for optimizing existing calciner systems in terms of combustion quality and the use of alternative fuels without the need for extensive modifications.
