A system and method provides for burning wood particles or other combustible fibrous particles at a continuous high rate in which the particles are at least partially pyrolyzed as they are being fed into a combustion chamber (23), complete combustion of the particles and pyrolysis products occurring within the combustion chamber. Pyrolysis is enabled by mixing the particles with air, as supplied by conduit (61) for example, having a temperature of at least 600`F. The system enables the burning of green wood in existing large boiler systems as well as in gas turbine systems; the latter operatable with a high pressure combustion chamber (126). In a boiler system (not shown), air for pyrolysis of the particles may be heated by the boiler; in a turbine system, air for pyrolysis of the particles may be heated by a compressor (130) driven by a turbine (112). |
