Abstract
A system and method for improving the reaction efficiency of a fluidized bed combustor or reactor in which a combustion supporting gas is passed upwardly through a bed of particulate material to fluidize same and to entrain the relatively fine particulate material in the bed. The entrained material is separated from the gas and is agglomerated externally of the housing before being passed back into the fluidized bed.
