Biomass
Biomass is an industry term for getting energy by burning wood, and other organic matter.
New!!: Cofiring and Biomass · See more »
Blast furnace
A blast furnace is a type of metallurgical furnace used for smelting to produce industrial metals, generally pig iron, but also others such as lead or copper.
New!!: Cofiring and Blast furnace · See more »
Carbon dioxide
Carbon dioxide (chemical formula) is a colorless gas with a density about 60% higher than that of dry air.
New!!: Cofiring and Carbon dioxide · See more »
Coal
Coal is a combustible black or brownish-black sedimentary rock usually occurring in rock strata in layers or veins called coal beds or coal seams.
New!!: Cofiring and Coal · See more »
Combustion
Combustion, or burning, is a high-temperature exothermic redox chemical reaction between a fuel (the reductant) and an oxidant, usually atmospheric oxygen, that produces oxidized, often gaseous products, in a mixture termed as smoke.

Economies of scale
In microeconomics, economies of scale are the cost advantages that enterprises obtain due to their scale of operation (typically measured by amount of output produced), with cost per unit of output decreasing with increasing scale.
New!!: Cofiring and Economies of scale · See more »
Electricity
Electricity is the set of physical phenomena associated with the presence and motion of electric charge.
New!!: Cofiring and Electricity · See more »
Enthalpy
Enthalpy is a property of a thermodynamic system.
New!!: Cofiring and Enthalpy · See more »
Exhaust gas
Exhaust gas or flue gas is emitted as a result of the combustion of fuels such as natural gas, gasoline, petrol, biodiesel blends, diesel fuel, fuel oil, or coal.
New!!: Cofiring and Exhaust gas · See more »
Fluidized bed combustion
Fluidized bed combustion (FBC) is a combustion technology used to burn solid fuels.
New!!: Cofiring and Fluidized bed combustion · See more »
Fossil
A fossil (from Classical Latin fossilis; literally, "obtained by digging") is any preserved remains, impression, or trace of any once-living thing from a past geological age.
New!!: Cofiring and Fossil · See more »
Fossil fuel
A fossil fuel is a fuel formed by natural processes, such as anaerobic decomposition of buried dead organisms, containing energy originating in ancient photosynthesis.
New!!: Cofiring and Fossil fuel · See more »
Fossil fuel power station
A fossil fuel power station is a power station which burns a fossil fuel such as coal, natural gas, or petroleum to produce electricity.
New!!: Cofiring and Fossil fuel power station · See more »
Fouling
Fouling is the accumulation of unwanted material on solid surfaces to the detriment of function.
New!!: Cofiring and Fouling · See more »
Fuel
A fuel is any material that can be made to react with other substances so that it releases energy as heat energy or to be used for work.
New!!: Cofiring and Fuel · See more »
Fuel oil
Fuel oil (also known as heavy oil, marine fuel or furnace oil) is a fraction obtained from petroleum distillation, either as a distillate or a residue.
New!!: Cofiring and Fuel oil · See more »
Gasification
Gasification is a process that converts organic- or fossil fuel-based carbonaceous materials into carbon monoxide, hydrogen and carbon dioxide.
New!!: Cofiring and Gasification · See more »
Global warming
Global warming, also referred to as climate change, is the observed century-scale rise in the average temperature of the Earth's climate system and its related effects.
New!!: Cofiring and Global warming · See more »
Grate firing
Grate firing was the first combustion system used for solid fuels.
New!!: Cofiring and Grate firing · See more »
Greenhouse gas
A greenhouse gas is a gas in an atmosphere that absorbs and emits radiant energy within the thermal infrared range.
New!!: Cofiring and Greenhouse gas · See more »
Heat
In thermodynamics, heat is energy transferred from one system to another as a result of thermal interactions.
New!!: Cofiring and Heat · See more »
Heat exchanger
A heat exchanger is a device used to transfer heat between two or more fluids.
New!!: Cofiring and Heat exchanger · See more »
Heat of combustion
The heating value (or energy value or calorific value) of a substance, usually a fuel or food (see food energy), is the amount of heat released during the combustion of a specified amount of it.

Landfill gas
Landfill gas is a complex mix of different gases created by the action of microorganisms within a landfill.
New!!: Cofiring and Landfill gas · See more »
Liquid fuel
Liquid fuels are combustible or energy-generating molecules that can be harnessed to create mechanical energy, usually producing kinetic energy; they also must take the shape of their container.
New!!: Cofiring and Liquid fuel · See more »
Natural gas
Natural gas is a naturally occurring hydrocarbon gas mixture consisting primarily of methane, but commonly including varying amounts of other higher alkanes, and sometimes a small percentage of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, hydrogen sulfide, or helium.
