  • Abstract
    The article presents an optimization method of combustion process in a power boiler. Immune inspired optimizer SILO is used to minimize CO and NOx emission. This solution is implemented in each of three units of Ostroleka Power Plant (Poland) and in the Newton Power Plant (USA). The result from the second SILO implementation in Newton Power Plant is presented. The results confirm that this solution is effective and usable in practice and it can be a good alternative to MPC controllers.
