ABSTRACT:
NO.sub.x emissions are reduced in the combustion of fuels by carrying out the combustion in at least four serially connected combustion zones, including at least three fuel-rich zones followed by a fuel-lean zone. In accordance with another aspect of the present invention, SO.sub.x emissions are reduced in the burning of a normally solid fuel, containing significant amounts of SO.sub.x precursors, by adding a sulfur scavenger to the fuel and thereafter burning the fuel in at least four serially connected combustion zones, including at least three fuel-rich zones followed by a last fuel-lean zone, and carrying out the combustion of the fuel in at least four combustion zones.
