is formed by blowing air up through a layer of inert
particles at a rate that causes the particles to go into
suspension and continuous motion--analogous to a
boiling liquid but with solid particles, therefore, the term
"Fluid Bed". It should be noted that the media used in
the burner remains as a granular solid. The material to
be used as a fuel is
