Although the air preheater low-temperature section tube bundle uses enameled tubes, after the unit has been running for a period of time, the air preheater tube bundle in the tail low-temperature section is still generally severely corroded and damaged. The damage of the preheater tube increases the boiler exhaust heat loss, reduces the boiler efficiency and unit reliability.

[0004] In summary, how to propose a new fluidized bed boiler to address the above technical issues has become an urgent problem to be solved by technicians in this field. Summary of the invention
