Small Scale Pilot Combustion Experiments with Wood Pellets – The Effect of Pellet Length
The primary objective of this study was to observe the effect of pellet length on utility and combustion temperature. Pellets with various lengths were combusted in a pellet stove. Pellet length was found to have a significant effect on the combustion temperature and stability. Increasing the length of pellets from 5.8mm to 13.1mm decreased the average burning temperature by 31% and flue gas te...
متن کاملCo-combustion of Biosolids with Wood Pellets in a Wood Pellet Stove
Co-combustion of biosolids with coal or other biomass fuel can play a significant role in combustion facilities for energy production and waste management policy context. This paper presents the results of an experimental study to investigate the use of biosolids for co-combustion with wood pellets in a wood pellet stove. Fuel property, gas emissions and stove efficiency are compared. In regard...
متن کاملGrass pellet Quality Index: A tool to evaluate suitability of grass pellets for small scale combustion systems
US renewable fuels policy strongly encourages biomass crop production, which should lead to expansion of biomass heating scenarios. Chemical composition of grass biomass can be extremely variable, depending on species, soil fertility, and harvest management. Biomass quality concerns have hindered the development of grass biomass for residential combustion, with no comprehensive evaluation syste...
متن کاملEnergy systems in transition: perspectives for the diffusion of small-scale wood pellet heating technology
Promising small-scale wood pellet heating systems with sizable market potentials have started to penetrate the residential heating market in Europe and elsewhere. Despite significant technological progress, cost reduction, improved convenience and reliability, and reduced environmental impact, diffusion of such systems will nonetheless take time. Framework and market conditions, and especially ...
متن کاملAdditives in Wood Pellet Production – a Pilot-scale Study of Binding Agent Usage
Finland currently has tremendous enthusiasm to increase decentralised pellet production alongside of large-scale factories. The aim of research is to promote the development of eco-/cost-efficient Nordic wood-based pellet production by means of multidisciplinary research. Using Finnish conifer stem wood (bark-free Scotch pine sawdust and shavings) as a model raw material, the total functionalit...
