Wood gasification solution for Bio Energy Netherlands
ZeroPoint is the selected EPC contractor for the first wood gasification installation of Bio Energy Netherlands, located in the port of Amsterdam and commissioned at the end of 2018. This commercial wood gasifier is the first of its kind in the Netherlands and uses the technology of the Zero-Point Clean Tech. A conscious choice was made for gasification instead of incineration, because 60-70% ...

Hydrogen-rich synthesis gas production from waste wood via gasification and reforming technology for fuel cell application
The purpose of this study was to establish a fuel process for an advanced power generation system in which hydrogen-rich synthesis gas, as the fuel for the molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC), can be extracted from biomass via gasification and reforming technologies. Experiments on waste wood gasification were performed using a bench-scale gasification system. The main factors influencing hydrogen ...

Co-gasification of wood and polyethylene with the aim of CO and H2 production
This article describes the gasification of polyethylene–wood mixtures to form syngas (H2 and CO) with the aim of feedstock recycling via direct fermentation of syngas to ethanol. The aim was to determine the effects of four process parameters on process properties that give insight into the efficiency of gasification in general, and particularly into the optimum gasification conditions for the ...

Energy self-sufficient farm fueled with biomass Finland - Case Study
Kuittila Farm in Nurmes is a dairy farm on 150 cows. Barn, grain and woodchips drying facilities, metal workshop and the main building have annual electricity consumption of approximately 340 000 kWh, and heating consumption of approximately 700 000 kWh. Due to the high consumption it was decided that the farm should be made self-sufficient in both electricity and ...

Study of the performance and exhaust emissions of a spark-ignited engine operating on syngas fuel
To resolve the problem of depletion of petroleum based liquid fuels, various solutions have been proposed. One of them is the use of gaseous fuels that are generated from the gasification of woods, namely syngas or wood-gas fuels, as full supplement fuels in spark ignition internal combustion (IC) engines. This fuel consists of nearly 40% combustible gases, mainly hydrogen and carbon monoxide ...

Renewable energy in chemical industry – the case of formic acid production
This paper analyses the economical viability of replacing fossil energy by renewable sources by taking CO2 emission legislation into account. A single chemical industry case, formic acid production, is studied in a tangible manner to provide a concrete example for industrial managers and legislators. The practical case was supported by examining scientific and other databases. This study ...
