The combustion of biomass, in this case demolition wood, has been investigated in a grate combustion multifuel reactor. In this work a temperature range of 850-1000 degrees C is applied both for staged air combustion and nonstaged combustion of biomass to investigate the effects of these parameters on the emission levels of NOx, N2O, CO, hydrocarbons (CxHy),) and different other components. The composition of the flue gas is measured by four advanced continuous gas analyzers including gas chromatograph (GC), two Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analyzers, and a conventional multispecies gas analyzer with fast response time. The experiments show the effects of staged air combustion, compared to nonstaged combustion, on the emission levels clearly. A NOx reduction of up to 85% is reached with staged air combustion. An optimum primary excess air ratio of 0.8-0.95 is found as a minimizing parameter for the NOx emissions for staged air combustion. Air staging has, however, a negative effect on N2O emissions. Even though the trends show a very small reduction in the NOx level as temperature increases in nonstaged combustion, the effect of temperature is not significant for NOx and CxHy, neither in staged air combustion or nonstaged combustion, while it has a great influence on the N2O and CO emissions, with decreasing levels with increasing temperature.
