The utilisation of biomass in coal-fired power plants can mitigate CO2 emissions, especially when combined with carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies, such as oxy-fuel combustion. In this paper, a commercial computational fluid dynamics software was used, with small or no modifications to the physical submodels, to predict the performance of a 500 MWesub-critical coal fired boiler under air and oxy-fuel conditions when firing coal, biomass, and a 20% biomass blend, for the same thermal input. The results suggest that for a wet recycle retrofit, the optimum oxygen concentration lies between the simulated range of 25 and 30%, where heat transfer characteristics of the air-fired design could be matched when firing either coal or a 20% biomass blend. However, for 100% biomass firing modifications of the firing arrangement may be necessary to achieve an output closer to the original design.
