The circulating [[Fluidised Bed]] [[Incineration|incinerator]] recirculates the bed material/[[Feedstock|feedstock]] using a hot cyclone. It works with fine bed material and at high gas speeds that remove most of the solid material particles from the [[Fluidised Bed]] chamber with the [[Flue Gas|flue gas]]. The particles are then separated in a downstream cyclone and returned to the bottom of the [[Incineration|incineration]] chamber. Particles below the cut-size of the cyclone (ash) are removed from the reactor. | The circulating [[Fluidised Bed]] [[Incineration|incinerator]] recirculates the bed material/[[Feedstock|feedstock]] using a hot cyclone.

The advantage of this process is that a high heat turnover and a more uniform temperature along the height can be reached with a low reaction volume. A wider range of [[Waste|waste]] inputs can be treated. The [[Waste|waste]] is injected at the side into the [[Incineration|incineration]] chamber and is [[Incineration|incinerated]] at 850-950°C. The surplus heat is removed through membrane walls and via heat exchangers placed between the recycling cyclones and the circulating [[Fluidised Bed]], which cool the returned ash as a way to control heat removal<ref name="ref2" />. | The advantage of this process is that a high heat turnover and a more uniform temperature along the height can be reached with a low reaction volume.
