Maintenance Study of a Pilot Biomass Pyrolysis Installation

Article Preview

Abstract:

The article describes the results of studies on a pilot pyrolysis installation with respect to maintenance parameters during pyrolysis of biomass in a form of pellets. Efficiency of raw fuel (pellets made from wood) conversion to processed fuels: coke, oil and post-pyrolytic gas. The described installation is atypical in terms of construction design that is based on the heat conduction mechanism (in most installations, convection in an atmosphere of inert gases or in vacuum is the dominating mechanism). Also, energy balances for biomass pyrolysis are presented.
