The aim of the project was to evaluate and select the best feedstock for a biomass to energy project. The feedstocks that were reviewed and assesed were chicken litter waste, commercial waste and wood chips. The wood chips was selected based on its carbon footprint and the recovery of energy compared to the other.
Comprehensive energy audit on a refinery complex. The objective was to implement an operational strategy whereby energy consumption on the facility can be minimised to optimise capital and operating cost.
Management consulting and advisory for a biomass to energy project using woodchips to recover 4MW of electricity. Supported by facilitating the review and selection of the feedstock to ensure the appropriate limits of the compostion of the biomass are met, to enable the sizing and procurement of the most suitable anaerobic digester plant for the production of gas for power generation.
After a detailed study reviewing laboratory scale trials and pilot plant measurements, it was deduced that Switchgrass is suitable for thermochemical processes such as combustion, gasification, and pyrolysis to generate renewable energy. And it has a tremendous potential to recover enormous amount of bio based products such as bioethanol.
