1 Biomass CHP gasification of wood biomass Eko village Kempele, Finland Radoslav Irgl COGENERA, Artim d.o.o.

2 What is biomass gasification? Thermal decomposition of biomass: Thermal process of biomass Oxygen proportion (reaction) Drying 0,0-0,0 Pyrolysis 0,0-0,1 Gasification 0,1-0,4 Combustion 1,0-1,3

3 Biomass gasification Downdraft gasifier

4 Wood Syngas Biomass Air (Oxygen) Uplinjanje biomase Syngas CO, H 2, CH 4, CO 2, N 2 Thermal application process heat o C Cogeneration heat and power Ash, Carbon

5 Biomass heat and power (CHP) Volter 40 kwe / 100 kwth Dry wood chips Volter unit CHP Electric power 40 kwe Heat ( hot water) 100 kwth

6 Volter CHP frame for container

7 Wood chips transport and gasifier Rotating feeder prevents from free airflow to the reactor. It also protects from back fire Fuel is fed from the silo by screw and chain conveyors

8 Syngas cooling and cleaning 1. Cooling before the filtering phase (heat recovering 1) 2. Dry filtering system (dust filter) 3. Control washing of Syngas (no running water needed) 4. Cooling to the final product gas temperature (heat recovering 2) 5. Cooled and filtered gas to motor

9 Heat and power from syngas Gas is fed to engine Heat is recovered from engine and exhaust gas Engine turns the generator which produces clean electricity Agco Sisu Power adapted diesel engine with electric generator

10 Power regulation and control Main logic processor Schneider M258 logic touch screen control panel Inverter (ABB ACS800)

11 Model: Biomass CHP Volter 30 / 40 Biomass Fuel: Wood chips (birch, spruce, pine, aspen) Fuel moisture: 12 15%, max. 18% Particle size: 8mm biomass 50mm, fine particles (<3,15mm) <1%, all <63mm Plant structure: Steel frame, Insulated with paroc (or similar) panels Color: As per agreement Fuel supply: Spring agitator, auger, rotating feeder Generator: Agco Sisu Power 4,9L, 4-cyl. / 8,4L, 6-cyl., generator 35 kwe / 45 kwe Output: Generator output 28 kwe / 40 kwe, thermal 80kW / 100 kwe Plant own usage : ca. 1,5-2kWe Fuel consumption: ca. 3,5 m3 / 4,5 m3 - of chips/24h at 100% power level Automation: Schneider electric PLC, GSM alarms, remote internet control Connections: Electricity cable, Heat channel, water line, broadband, GSM-connection Installation: Asphalt or concrete base Ash removal: Automatic ash removal Max. o.t./a: 7800h Maint. interval: once a week Other: SynGas from gasification reactor is tar free. Gas cleaning is only for solid particles.
