1 Bio-oil for the Future Fast Pyrolysis Liquids as Energy Carriers

2 Technology supplied by Integrated Fast Pyrolysis VTT Technology The first integrated industrial plant will be the demonstration by Fortum Power and Heat in Finland in 2014 at the scale of t/a of bio-oil. Bio-oil will be used in district heat production replacing fossil fuels. Metso DNA automation system High pressure steam Turbine Electricity Non-condensible gas District heat Forest residue Condenser Crusher Drying Fluidized bed boiler Pyrolysis unit Bio-oil

5 Performance Balance Assessment AspenPlus Steady-State-Models Validated with Experimental Data Power input Heat loss RAW MATERIAL W W Power output District heat Power input Heat loss FUEL Q AspenPlus-models may be used to evaluate industrial plant mass and energy balances, which enables industry to evaluate preliminary economic feasibility of fast pyrolysis for their specific cases. Analysis and Design of Bioenergy Processes Using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Validated with Experimental Data CFD-models are used to improve fast pyrolysis designs. From left: Computed temperature distribution (K), rate of release of bio-oil components (red indicates large rate, blue low rate) during pyrolysis, and some wood particle tracks coloured by initial size (blue indicates small size, red large size: mm-5 mm).
