| dc.description.abstract | This PhD research project is primarily an investigation of the gaseous pollutant emissions arising from concurrent combustion of biomass and municipal solid wastes materials, using a fluidized bed combustor. Of the wide range of biomass energy resources available, dried distillers’ grains with solubles and wheat straw were chosen as two example agricultural by-products of the human food supply chain. To consider an integrated waste management programme, a residual waste resource from a materials recycling facility was identified as a waste materials source that could be utilized after materials recycling was performed (which is a higher priority activity with respect to energy recovery).
