The utilization of challenging solid fuels in the energy industry (especially the ones derived from wastes) has a big priority nowadays, as it is a valid option to keep the recent EU directive related to the decrease of landfills. However, there are serious technical challenges, connecting to the lack of knowledge about the behavior of these fuels in the combustion chamber. This paper discusses the specific aspects of developing particle models concerning the combustion of these non-conventional fuels. A new modeling approach is presented, using which it is possible to develop an all-round particle model that includes every significant influencing process. Moreover, it does not have any restrictions regarding the shape, size and the origin of the particle. As an integral component of this model, the distinctive aspects of intrinsic reaction kinetics related to waste fuels are presented as well.
