This research work focus is on optimization of the combustion quality as the combustion quality plays a vital role in minimizing NOx and CO emissions in the flue gas. Power generated is also another important factor under consideration so as to meet the demand. Flame monitoring in boilers using digital imaging provides replacement for the conventional technique of temperature measurement. The indigenous method can be replaced by incorporating an online PC based system by analyzing the flame images.
