Kvaerner Power is an expert in bubbling fluidized bed
(BFB) boilers for power generation from biomass and
recycled fuel (20MWth - 300MWth).
The development of bubbling fluidized bed combustion
began with the incineration technology for wood waste
and sludge in the 1970s. The first industrial BFB boiler
saw daylight in the mid-1980s and, since then, the company
has been the supplier of successive record-size BFB
units.

The major design innovation for Kvaerner Power's HYBEX®
boilers using BFB technology in the mid-1990s, was the hydro
beam floor – an advanced solution for removal of coarse material
from the furnace. The world's largest biomass fired bubbling
fluidised bed boiler has been installed at UPM-Kymmene's Kuusankoski
pulp and paper mill in Finland since 2002. The 269 MWth HYBEX®
boiler uses bark, forest residue, biosludge and peat as fuel.
