Pulverised fuel firing

Pulverized fuel firing is a process that helps to burn fuel in power generation plants to create heat, which is then used to produce electricity.

Basically, the fuel used in this process is first turned into a fine powder by crushing it into tiny pieces, kind of like making sand out of rocks. This powder is then mixed with air and blown into a special burner called a furnace.

When the powder and air mix, it creates a really hot flame, almost like a big fire. This flame heats up the water in the power plant's boilers, which creates a lot of steam. The steam then turns special machines called turbines which are connected to generators to create electricity.

The reason we pulverize the fuel is to make sure it burns as efficiently as possible. By making the fuel into a fine powder, we can better control how much fuel is being burned, and we can make sure all of it is being used to create heat.

This process is often used in large scale power plants because it can create a lot of electricity efficiently and on demand. It's important to use energy sources like this because it allows us to create electricity without adding more pollution to our environment.
