Abstract

Combustion of petroleum coke using air to carry the fuel into a combustion zone and to provide a source of oxidant. Enhanced combution utilizes oxygen introduced into or proximate primary, secondary, tertiary, quaternary, or over-fire air to effect primary combustion of the fuel. Petroleum coke fuel in an oxygen supported air-petroleum coke combustion process can be used to re-power a utility boiler.
