Abstract

World energy demands have risen dramatically in recent decades, owing primarily to rapid industrialization and rising living standards. So far, fossil fuels have been the main source of energy. Increased energy consumption has resulted in higher carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxide emissions into the atmosphere, as well as gradually diminishing fossil fuel reserves. As a result, today's top priority is to develop energy-efficient technologies that emit the least amount of carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxides while also reducing our reliance on fossil fuels. Biomass flameless combustion (FLC) is a promising technology for achieving zero net CO2, ultra-low NOx emissions, and replacing a portion of fossil fuel as an energy source. This chapter provides a brief introduction, background, basic concept, practical applications, recent developments, and major challenges in biomass FLC.
