Abstract
Results of Israeli oil shale combustion at atmospheric pressure in the AFBC commercial boiler manufactured by Foster Wheeler Energia OY (Finland) and in the pressurized test facility of ABB Carbon AB (Finspong, Sweden) confir m suitability of fluidized-bed technologies in case of oil shale. The resul ts approve possibility to use the PFBC technology in case of oil shale afte r solving of some problems connected with great amounts of fine fly ash.
