On this month's cover: The Fives FCB Low-NOx Precalciner has proven its flexibility to burn fuels as various as petcoke, natural gas, anthracite coal or rubber chips. It operates with great stability and produces hardly any NOx, even when fired with 100% petcoke; so today emission standards can be fulfilled without any additional system such as urea or ammonia injection.
