Abstract: Cofiring gas on coal in utility boilers encompasses using gas as an ignition and/or warmup fuel was well as some portion of base load fuel. Although this concept is not new, cofiring is believed to offer a number of important environmental and operational benefits to boiler owners and operators. The Gas Research Institute (GRI) is supporting limited research and testing to document these benefits in fullscale applications. This paper reports on the results of a test program at a 570 MW pulverized coal utility boiler recently modifed with gas cofiring capability. Findings regarding effects on boiler operations and air emissions characteristics are presented. Perspectives on cofiring economics are also discussed.
