We are often asked why one might use a TORBED processor as opposed to Circulating Fluidized Bed Combustion Technology.
Here are some reasons:
- Compact design and smaller footprint for space-constrained applications.
- Lower capital and operating costs due to its simpler design.
- Better heat transfer efficiency in smaller systems.
- Simpler design and easier maintenance, reducing downtime.
- More fuel flexibility, particularly with lower-quality or waste fuels.
- Lower emissions, especially in small-scale applications.
- Faster startup and shutdown times.
- Fewer external air/fuel handling systems, simplifying integration.
- Better suited for small-scale industrial applications with flexible heating needs.
- Less complex fuel preparation compared to a Circulating Fluidized Bed.
