Abstract

ABSTRACT The overall goal of this project is to design, develop and demonstrate a 50-kW modular gasification system for grid-connected combined heat and power using forest residue. Building on the success of the previous 12.5-kW small modular biomass project, this new project will result in the development and demonstration of a 50-kW small modular biopower (SMB) system designed for a parallel connection to the local utility grid and capable of continuous operation. This project will support the goal of a commercially viable small modular biopower system. A SMB system will be designed and developed and tested in a two-phase program. The first phase involves a one-year R&D program to design, fabricate, and factory test a 50-kW system. During second phase, this new first of its kind unit will be grid-connected, and field demonstrated in California for two years. The SMB system shall be designed to meet or exceed The California Air Resources Board (CARB) emission standards, including nitrogen oxides, volatil...
