The content of water-soluble salts as potassium chloride (KCl) in straw may cause a number of different operational problems during the energy conversion in the plants. The content of potassiumn and
The project concerned production of liquid potassium fertilizer from straw fly ash. A pilot plant was established at the straw-fired boiler at Ensted Power Station, and, in 2007, the project succeeded
The objective was to monitor the corrosion rate of superheater tubes at different steam temperatures in a straw-fired plant in order to determine the optimal live steam temperature. This was done by
Light tar is a significant contaminant in gas thermally produced from biomass using updraft gasifiers. This tar represents a server risk with respect to formation of deposits within the gas-driven
Utilisation of biomass and waste is generally expensive and not very efficient on small and medium scale plants. For gasification systems the main problem is the gas cleaning, where severe
Uneven char conversion and in extreme cases channels have been observed in the char bed of down draft gasifier. This might lead to a reduced efficiency of the gasifier.
The aim of the project was to optimize the biogas process of high ratios of the organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW) in co-digestion with manure. Optimization was aimed with regard to
Microbiologically induced corrosion (MIC) in district heating systems is a well-known phenomenon, which to a large extend has been associated with sulphate-reduging bacteria (SRB). Detection of these
The goal of the project is to collect, promote, and communicate the knowledge of pyrolysis and related thermal conversion processes for production of fuels and chemicals from biomass.
