Combustion of biomass and waste releases corrosive species such as alkali chlorides and water vapor, which accelerate corrosion of superheaters in boilers.
“However, the combustion of biomass and waste is well-known to result in a corrosive environment within the boiler due to the formation of, e.g., alkali salts and high levels of H2O(g), which accelerate the degradation of various components in the boiler, such as the superheater tubes (SH).1−12”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
