Processes of extracting energy
from biomass
Direct combustion
Thermo-chemical gasification (heat to 800ºC under
pressure)
Pyrolysis (heat to 300-500ºC in near absence of air)
Anaerobic digestion
Fermentation of non-woody biomass
Hydrolysis & fermentation of woody biomass
Transesterification of vegetable oils
Gasification and catalytic production of Fischer-Tropsch
liquids
Gasification to produce hydrogen
01-28-2019 22
Conversion of Biomass Waste into
Useable Fuel
Gasification: Exposing a solid fuel to high
temperatures and limited oxygen
produces biogas.
Pyrolysis: Heating the biomass can
produce pyrolysis oil and phenol oil
leaving charcoal.
Digestion: Bacteria, in an oxygen-starved
environment can produce methane.
Fermentation: Bio-material that is used to
manufacture Ethanol and Bio-diesel by an
anaerobic biological process in which
sugars are converted to alcohol by the
action of micro-organisms, usually yeast.
Solid Fuel Combustion: Direct
combustion of solid matter.
01-28-2019 23
Direct combustion
Cooking with firewood in developing countries,
typical cook-stove efficiency is 10-20%, 30%
with improved stoves (vs. 45-60% with gaseous
fuels)
Pellet heating, central Europe in particular
District heating in Sweden, Atlantic Canada
Issues include ash content (which is related to
the non-combustible silica in the biomass,
which can be high) and K and Ca in the fuel,
which can cause agglomeration in boilers
01-28-2019 24
Solid Fuel Combustion
Direct combustion of solid matter
where the biomass is fed into a furnace Wood
where it is burned. The heat is used to
boil water and the energy in the steam
is used to turn turbines and generators.

Pyrolysis
Heat is used to chemically convert
biomass to bio-oil.
01-28-2019 29
Pyrolysis
Heat bio-material under pressure
500-1300 ºC (900-2400 ºF)
50-150 atmospheres
Carefully controlled air supply
Up to 75% of biomass converted to liquid
Tested for use in engines, turbines, boilers
Currently experimental

What is a Biogas Plant
Basically Methane & CO2 Gas Producer.
Methane – Odorless, Colorless, Good Calorific
Value, Green House Gas
Sources : Animal Manures, excreta, kitchen
waste, Industrial Chemical Processes, Sea
Water Bed, etc.
Animal Manure & Excreta contributes around 16
% of the total global methane emission.

BioFuels
Ethanol
Created by fermentation of starches/sugars
Active research on cellulosic fermentation
Biodiesel
Organic oils combined with alcohols
Creates ethyl or methyl esters

Advantages of biomass:
Can be stored
Provides rural income & employment
Potentially cleaner than coal for most pollutants
Can be irrigated and fertilized with sewage water
Can be cultivated in such a way as to improve
the landscape and remediate soils
Can make use of animal wastes and agricultural
residues while providing an effective fertilizer
