New MU boiler leads Missouri forest protection – The Maneater

New MU boiler leads Missouri forest protection – The Maneater: "By fall 2012, more than a quarter of the coal in the MU Power Plant will be replaced by a more sustainable fuel: biomass.

MU Power Plant superintendent Gregg Coffin said the plant will use MU's first 100 percent biomass boiler, provided by Babcock & Wilcox Power Generation Group Inc.

The existing boilers in the power plant have been burning coal traditionally. Since 2005, a portion of the fuel for the four boilers has been replaced by a more environmentally friendly fuel blend, burning woody biomass and waste agricultural products with coal."
