Off-stoichiometric firing is accomplished by staggering the air-rich and fuel-rich burners in each of the burner levels. Various burner configuration tests have shown that it is generally more effective to operate most of the elevated burners air-rich or air only. Off-stoichiometric firing in pulverized coal fired boilers usually consists of using the upper burners on air only while operating the lower levels of burners fuel-rich. This technique is called overfire air operation.
