Design and supply 24 MWt biomass fired furnace

Design, manufacturing, supply start up and commissioning of a 24 MWt  furnace fed by wasted biomass (wood chips, wine production waste, straw, kernel and stones), including auxiliaries and Process & Combustion Control.

Maximum Quantity of biomasses to be burnt: 10 tonnes hour of grape’s harvest and winery by-products at 1850 kcal/kg.  LHV shall be in the range 1850-3000 kCal/kg.
The main focus of  furnace design was the optimization of its adiabaticg rade, thus allowing the processing of fuels with low energy content while still reaching optimal post-combustion (temperatures higher that 900 °C and controlled oxygen content).

It has to be remarked that a high adiabatic grade (95% in this case) allows for burning fuels with a LHV as low as 1850 kCal/kg.
