ABSTRACT
Boilers and steam generators are mainly found in thermal power plants and industrial installations. Power boilers (pulverized coal boilers, high pressure circulating fluidized bed boilers) are presented as well as co-combustion. Speed variations are also detailled (I have left transitoire dunno what to do with it...) as well as waste heat and biomass boilers. This articles concludes with the various recovery boilers (focusing on their specific design) and solar boilers (vaporization, recovery boilers).
Read this article from a comprehensive knowledge base, updated and supplemented with articles reviewed by scientific committees.

INTRODUCTION
Energy and material balances for boilers were the subject of a first article
This latest dossier [BE 8 732] is devoted to specific applications.
Boilers or steam generators are mainly found in power stations and industrial plants. Depending on their capacity and the origin or type of primary energy, the main categories are pulverized coal-fired boilers, high-power circulating fluidized-bed boilers, waste-fired boilers, biomass-fired boilers and recovery boilers.
