Conclusions and future work Conclusions and future work The aim of this thesis was to provide a full overview on small-scale wood fired power generation technologies, in order to identify the most performing solutions from a thermodynamic and an economic point of view. Results of the performance simulations show that the most efficient configurations are the following: • internal combustion engine coupled with a gasifier; • regenerative gas turbine coupled with a pressurised gasifier; • externally fired gas turbine with a ceramic/high temperature heat exchanger; • bottoming organic Rankine cycle coupled with the former two listed solutions. Achievable electrical efficiencies are about 25% at 100 kWel, 30% at 1 MWel and 35 ÷ 40% at 5 MWel. Feeding gas turbines directly with solid biomass would provide excellent performance, but this is normally considered an unfeasible option. On the other hand, a hybrid gas turbine solution fed with natural gas and solid biomass has been studied, providing good efficiencies, although it is only partially renewable. A more-in-depth analysis has additionally shown that a proper heat recovery from the syngas cooling process in gasification devices results in a considerable efficiency increase, both in electrical and thermal terms. The most efficient solutions, together with the hybrid gas turbine, have been subject to an economic analysis. This study has shown that the externally fired gas turbine with a high temperature heat exchanger is the most convenient solution at 100 kWel, while an internal combustion engine coupled with a gasifier is preferable at 1 MWel. At 5 MWel these two solutions provide similar results: the former is more performing if heat can be sold for a long period during the year, otherwise the latter is more suitable. If power generation is being focused, then an internal combustion engine coupled with a gasifier should be preferred. 221PDF Image | SMALL-SCALE BIOMASS POWER GENERATION

Infinity Supercritical CO2 10 Liter Extractor Design and Worldwide Rights: The Infinity Supercritical 10L CO2 extractor is for botanical oil extraction, which is rich in terpenes and can produce shelf ready full spectrum oil. With over 5 years of development, this industry leader mature extractor machine has been sold since 2015 and is part of many profitable businesses. The process can also be used for electrowinning, e-waste recycling, and lithium battery recycling, gold mining electronic wastes, precious metals. CO2 can also be used in a reverse fuel cell with nafion to make a gas-to-liquids fuel, such as methanol, ethanol and butanol or ethylene. Supercritical CO2 has also been used for treating nafion to make it more effective catalyst. This NFT is for the purchase of worldwide rights which includes the design. More Info
