TEOM Combustion Efficiency Monitor

The TEOM Series 4200 Combustion Efficiency Monitor provides on-line information at coal-burning facilities to gauge a facility's combustion efficiency. The photo above shows the analyzer's oven in which fly ash collected on a high-temperature filter is heated to temperatures of approximately 800 degrees C.

The monitor uses a direct, thermal-CO2 technique to determine the carbon concentration (in percent) of fly ash generated by a coal burning facility. The default data output rate is one measurement every 12 minutes. Using information provided by the monitor, facility operators will have a new tool to help balance the sometimes conflicting goals of combustion efficiency, boiler efficiency and air quality impact, such as nitrogen oxide emissions.
