- Waste plastic- Used tires- Used oil

CHP – heat and power from biomass

Wood biomass and agriculture biomass

CHP – heat and power from biomassWith Universal Gasifier

Technology includs:

- Preparation of biomass (drying + grinding to size <2mm) - Biomass gasification – “Universal gasifier”- Dry Syngas cleaning – only on solid particles, no tar technology, no water consumption

- CHP unit – internal combustion engine and electric generator withpower electronics

- Process Control and remote monitoring

CHP – heat and power from biomass Machine assembly

Biomass drying Flash dryer or rotary dryer

Biomass grindingto <2-3 mmHammer mill

CHP unit Container unit or

unit for machine room

Biomass preparation – one step drying andgrinding – better energy efficiency

Biomass preparation – same machine as for pelletfactory

Biomass preparation –one step drying and grinding –

better energy efficiency, small space footprint

Large size of biomass should be grinded to wood chips size, to enter hammer mill

6-12 mm and moisture 45% max. - for flash dryer> 15 mm and moisture >50% - for rotary dryer

CHP – heat and power from biomass –Universal gasifier, CE certified

UG type gasifier can work with different kind of biomass - grinded to size less than 2 mm and with water content of max. 12%. Gasification works in "Entrained flow principle". Gasification process of biomass particles is very quick (0,5 - 4 sec.) - because of biomass size and temperature inside gasifier - 1200 - 1400°C.Produced syngas has only traces of tar, carbon conversion is very high.

Characteristics of Universal gasifier :• biomass flexibility• biomass fuel size, is to be limited to <2-3 mm, water content max. 12%• dry Syngas cleaning only, no tar cleaning• different kind of biomass: wood, soya husk, sunflower husk, straw, ...• very small footprint of gasifier• typical payback is within 48 - 72 months• low maintenance, no operative risk, easy to operate• modular assembly• high carbon conversion: > 98 %• operation range from 40% - 100 % nominal power output

Entarined flow gasification35 years old technology of coal gasification
