1.1

Intended use

The underfeed combustion system is only provided for combustion of the contractually
specified fuels as bulk materials. This is clearly stated in the order confirmation of
Schmid AG energy solutions and in the project design. Any other use, or the use of any
other fuels is considered contrary to the intended use. The manufacturer is not liable for
any damage resulting from such use. The user alone bears the risk of such unintended
use.
1.1.1

Fuel

The fuel specifications are defined during system project design. It is recommended to
operate the combustion system with fuel of the quality listed in section 2.8.4.
The defined fuels according to the order confirmation and project design must be
complied with.
The introduction of any foreign objects, such as stones, nails, soil, and metal objects
may result in severe damage to the transport assemblies and combustion system.
Never under any circumstances exceed the specified moisture content of the fuel.
Excessive moisture content will result in improper combustion. If moisture content is
too high, the combustion temperature will not reach the proper level, causing exces-
sive flue gas emissions. There is also a risk that the combustion system will become
over-filled, smothering combustion.
Failure to adhere to these guidelines voids the warranty on system parts, mechanics
and emissions.
The system is not intended for combustion of any fuel other than virgin wood or residual
wood from the wood processing industry. Other fuels, such as waste wood, contami-
nated wood waste, etc. do not conform to the intended use of the system and can result
in damage to the system, such as corrosion, mechanical defects, and environmental
damage (e.g. emissions of heavy metals).
Special fuels must be coordinated with Schmid AG energy solutions. Furthermore, the
system must always be operated in conformity with applicable air quality laws.
