BC Bugwood Envirochem Services Inc. such plants near sawmills, hog fuel piles, wood waste landfills8, etc. would address several problems together and feedstock costs would at the same time be reduced to improve plant economics. CL briquettes create the possibility of a much lower capital cost gas turbine for power generation, which could then supply a gasification plant with a much cleaner feedstock for the creation of syngas. Greenhouses in the Lower Mainland could use small CHP plants that can control particulate emissions while delivering electricity in an area where demand is highest, providing substantial value for BC Hydro's power planning. Based on the above results, some technologies can operate profitably even with expensive bugwood as their feedstock. This means that the existence of such plants in BC is very likely to reduce existing wood waste problems seen in many areas. With wood waste being a free feedstock, and transport costs being less important than harvesting costs, these additional feedstocks are more than likely to be utilised once the infrastructure for their energy conversion is in place. 6.2.4 Further Work and Research The following areas are recommended for further investigation: • Investigate technologies or strategies for reducing the high cost of bugwood harvesting. • Confirm the cost of harvesting bugwood and resolve discrepancies between various studies quoting different costs. • Assess market value and potentials for products made from bugwood in domestic and foreign markets, and identify possible sites and/or partners for community or industry CHP installations. • Develop a bugwood-for-energy strategy that links in with BC’s Alternative Energy Strategy, and analyse how several plants of various technologies could work together synergetically to use this resource cost-efficiently. • The harvesting of non-stem wood or forest fire fuel load reduction may present an economic opportunity for BC that has so far been ignored. In Scandinavia, special processors collect branches, and small diameter stems to form bundles which are then utilised in energy conversion plants. According to FERIC, the density of non-stemwood is still low even if bundled, and the cost of bundlers is high (i.e., on-site chipping of such wood may be another option to be considered for BC). • Detailed economic and feasibility studies should be encouraged, possibly through public private partnerships, for specific locations and applications as some of the assumptions in this report (e.g. averaging transport distance), the availability of waste fibre, and local community and/or industry needs for energy may have masked a site-specific economic opportunity. • The feasibility of micro or small community-scale wood gas systems, such as mobile self powered whole log or branch chippers could be evaluated. Most of the technologies presented in this report and other reports concerning bugwood require further development and refinement of expertise and knowledge to bring them to commercialization. Information has been presented to suggest the most promising opportunities. Further research and support is required to bring them to commercial reality in the reduced time-frame available to meet the BC bugwood issue. 8 Wood waste landfills in BC frequently contain other non-wood items, such as car wrecks or concrete, which may make their “mining” for energy purposes difficult, or uneconomic.
