Biomass ejector buckets

[KennyO]

Other than Chaff, OSR & Bean straw, we buy in all our fuel...BSL certified. Still have to do all the fuel chain carbon calcs for everything though which was a real chore to set up. 2 boilers on separate RHI accounts, hydraulically linked with different reporting dates,,,quite a challenge. All good now though.

What are you using the heat for?

Houses & Workshop.
Grain drier.
G30 Woodchip dried to below 30%.
G30 Woodchip dried to below 10% for a CHP plant

for the g30 below 30%have you worked out how many kWh of what you need to dry a ton?

Rough guestimate.

25 tonnes wet Chip @ 55%
8 MW Heat to evaporate 8000 litres of water.
17 tonnes dry chip @ 25% - 30%
20 hrs.

320kW per wet tonne to dry 25 tonnes down to below 30%

So based on 3000kwh / ton for the dry chip’s heat value you need about 10% of the released energy in heating ?

ill look at my figures and compare when back in office
