Incomplete Combustion in Coal-fired Power Plants

Incomplete combustion occurs in a coal-fired unit's furnace when insufficient oxygen (O 2) is available during fuel combustion. "Excess Air" is the amount of O 2 available for combustion. Coal requires a relatively high amount of excess air to burn completely, quickly, and in the furnace compared to other types of fuel.
