Chicken farm manure used to generate power and heat

http://www.engineerlive.com/content/21081 Sean Ottewell reports on how chicken manure is the latest fuel to benefit from advanced technology heat and power generation, while a process used in the manufacture of coffee could boost biomass energy content by 20 per cent. Waste from chicken farms has long been used as a fuel, but tougher regulations are forcing the manufacturers to turn to more advanced solutions. For example, GE Energy's ecomagination-certified Jenbacher gas engines will use biogas created from chicken manure to generate needed power and heat at a large chicken farm north of the China's capital city of Beijing. The plant is the first of its type in China and could pave the way for similar applications in the future. The Beijing Deqingyuan chicken farm waste utilisation plant comes as the country seeks innovative ways to meet its energy and environmental requirements. Providing 14600MWh of electricity per year, the project is designed to help reduce sub...

Subsidy For Biomass Briquetting Plant Project In India

blog.briquettingpressmachine.com/subsidy-for-biomass-briquetting-plant-project-in-india/ Subsidy for biomass briquetting plant project is the unique feature of this project. The new energy system biomass briquette plant is the great option for need of renewable energy in future. Sustainable energy sources are new expect for future energy sources and that’s why biomass briquetting plant is more preferable in India as well as foreign countries. Government encourages biomass briquette plant project by offering best subsidy plans to buyers. You can find any information of government incentives on biomass briquetting project, here. State Subsidy for  briquetting machine  in India is varies depends upon government taxes. Due to subsidy for biomass briquette plant in India, advantages and profitability of briquetting press machine is great. Being Agriculture country, the current availability of biomass in India is estimated at about 500 millions metric tones per year which is ...

Bio Gas Plants in the UK

http://www.biogas-info.co.uk/index.php/ad-map.html This map shows operational anaerobic digestion plants in the UK (excluding those in the water industry * ). Plants can be filtered by the following categories: Agricultural  – an anaerobic  digester  exclusively using slurries, manures, crops or crop residues produced on-farm Community  – an anaerobic digester predominantly using food waste, collected from multiple sources Industrial  – an anaerobic digester used to treat on-site waste, such as brewery effluent or food processing residues Each of these categories can be further filtered by the end-use of the  biogas : Heat and/or Power (  CHP )  – an anaerobic digester generating biogas which is burned on-site to generate heat, power or both Biomethane  to Grid (BtG)  – an anaerobic digester generating and upgrading biogas, to derive biomethane for injection into the national gas grid

Refuse Derived Fuel - RDF

http://www.bioenergyconsult.com/refuse-derived-fuel/ MSW is a poor-quality fuel and its pre-processing is necessary to prepare fuel pellets to improve its consistency, storage and handling characteristics, combustion behaviour and calorific value. Technological improvements are taking place in the realms of advanced source separation, resource recovery and production/utilisation of recovered fuel in both existing and new plants for this purpose. There has been an increase in global interest in the preparation of RDF containing a blend of pre-processed MSW with coal suitable for combustion in pulverised coal and fluidised bed boilers. Pelletization of municipal solid waste involves the processes of segregating, crushing, mixing high and low heat value organic waste material and solidifying it to produce fuel pellets or briquettes, also referred to as Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF). The process is essentially a method that condenses the waste or changes its physical form and enric...

Ideal Choice for Waste Management

http://www.organic-power.co.uk/why_anaerobic_digestion.aspx Why Anaerobic Digestion? There are essentially three main options for dealing with organic wastes: §   bury it - which means landfilling §   burn it - which means incineration, gasification or pyrolysis §   bio-digest it - which means either anaerobic digestion or composting Technology Sustainable Impact on the environment Energy recovery Fertiliser output Water recovery Heavy metal recovery Landfill Unsustainable waste of resources Some CH 4  to atmosphere, leachate problems Partial if landfill gas extracted No fertiliser outputs Lost in leachate Not possible Composting Energy required Damage to ozone layer, also leachate problems None Incomplete pathogen kill Lost to atmosphere Not possible Incineration Fertiliser loss negate...
