There are suitable conditions for realization of the following projects in the sphere of thermal gasification of biomass:
PRODUCTION OF ENERGY THROUGH THERMAL GASIFICATION OF LIGNIN CELLULOSE BIOMASS AND OTHER COMBUSTIBLE WASTE
- PRODUCTS: Electricity, heat (can be converted into steam, cold or additional electrical power), charcoal powder (pellets or briquettes), organic tar
- OTHER POSSIBLE PRODUCTS: It is possible to produce synthetic biodiesel directly from syngas instead of electricity and heat
- RAW MATERIALS: wood biomass, agricultural waste (straw, stems from other crops, husks of sunflower seeds, rice etc..) and also, fast-growing trees and other combustible waste and raw materials
- SOURCES OF RAW MATERIALS: Regular logging, sanitary logging, wood and timber industry, furniture and paper/cellulose industry, grain processing industry, plant-growing farms, creamery, oil producers
- KEY TECHNOLOGY: Thermal gasification with synthesis gas as inter-product (syngas)
- ADVANTAGES: 20 year contract for guaranteed buying up of electricity at preferential price, ability of the technology to work with different materials at minimal settings
- FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE: investment recovery period is 4 - 5 years
- FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES: Assistance in securing bank financing
