Abstract: A pulverized coal burning boiler is provided, which reduces an air-excess ratio thereby to reduce the emission of unburned contents such as CO. The pulverized coal burning boiler includes a pulverized coal feed measuring device for measuring the feeding rates of the pulverized coal to be conveyed through coal feeding pipes, individually, and a control device for calculating the burning air feeding rates to match the pulverized coal feeding rates thereby to send a control command signal to burning air feed adjusting device, so that a burner air ratio set by a burner air ratio setting device may be kept on the basis of both the pulverized coal feeding rate, which is measured by the pulverized coal feed measuring device, and the burning air feeding rate, which is measured by the burning air feeding rate measuring device and fed to a pulverized coal burner connected to the coal feeding pipes.
