An apparatus for feeding solids into the bed of a fluidized bed furnace (18). The feed solids are separated into a fine fraction and a coarse fraction. The coarse fraction is supplied to fluidized bed (16) in an in-bed pneumatic transport feed system or in an over-the-bed feed system. The fine fract

An apparatus for feeding solids into the bed of a fluidized bed furnace (18). The feed solids are separated into a fine fraction and a coarse fraction. The coarse fraction is supplied to fluidized bed (16) in an in-bed pneumatic transport feed system or in an over-the-bed feed system. The fine fraction as well as fluidizing air are supplied to fines admission zone (24) wherein the fine fraction and fluidizing air are thoroughly mixed. The mixture of the fine fraction of feed solids and the fluidizing air is then passed upwardly through air distribution means (38) into fluidized bed (16).

Apparatus for introducing particulate feed solids into a fluidized bed furnace comprising: (a) a housing containing a chamber therein; (b) a first air distributor means extending horizontally across the chamber to divide the chamber into a combustion zone above the first air distributor means and an air inlet zone below the first air distributor means; (c) means for supplying coarse feed solids to the combustion zone; (d) a second air distributor means extending horizontally across the air inlet zone so as to establish uniform air distribution with a first air plenum beneath the second air distributor means and a second air plenum above the second air distributor means; (e) means for introducing fine feed solids into the second air plenum; and (f) means for introducing fluidizing air into the first air plenum, whereby fluidizing air passes from the first air plenum, upwardly through the second air distributor means into the second air plenum where the fluidizing air is thoroughly mixed with the fine feed solids, the mixture of fine feed solids and fluidizing air then passes upwardly through the first air distributor means into the combustion zone.
