METHOD FOR DETERMINING THE FOSSIL FUEL CONTENT IN A FUEL STREAM, AS WELL AS AN INCINERATION FURNACE

摘要

Method and device for determining the fossil fuel content in a fuel stream fed to an incineration furnace. According to the method, the waste gas is sampled and the amount of “new” and “old” carbon present in the CO2 is determined by the 14C method. When the stream of waste gas varies, an accurate measurement can be achieved by measuring the quantitative throughput of gas using a mass or volume flow meter and relating this to the size of the sample.
