摘要:
An apparatus for extracting energy from fiber introduced as a fuel into a vertically elongated combustion chamber having a suspension burner capable of projecting a flame down the axis of the combustion chamber with a heat collection surface located radially from the flame and below the burner, and an exhaust opening located below the flame and below at least a portion of the heat collection surface, in which the combusted fiber yields a mixture containing hot flue gas and molten ash above the exhaust opening and heat transfers therefrom to the heat collection surface prior to any substantial contact of ash to a surface of the combustion chamber, to yield a mixture containing warm flue gas and non-molten ash, that is thereafter cooled to yield a mixture containing cool flue gas and non-molten ash.

摘要:
A method for extracting energy from biomass depleted of at least some carbohydrate, at least some oil, or both by a) introducing the biomass into a vertically elongated combustion chamber having i) at least one suspension burner at the top of the combustion chamber which is capable of projecting a flame down the axis of the combustion chamber, ii) a heat transfer apparatus having at least a portion of a heat collection surface located radially from the flame and below the burner, and iii) an exhaust opening located below the flame and below at least a portion of the heat collection surface; b) combusting the biomass to yield a mixture containing hot flue gas and molten ash above the exhaust opening; c) transferring heat from the hot flue gas to at least a portion of the heat collection surface substantially by radiation prior to any substantial contact of ash to a surface of the combustion chamber, to yield a mixture containing warm flue gas and non-molten ash and having a lower molten ash content than the mixture yielded by the combusting step; and d) cooling the warm flue gas with cold gas, to yield a mixture containing cool flue gas and non-molten ash and having a lower molten ash content than the mixture yielded by the transferring step.

摘要:
An apparatus that extracts energy from processed agriculture residue (PAR) such as dried distiller grains or rapeseed as a biomass fuel having about 12% by weight or less moisture combusted in a vertically elongated combustion chamber having at least one suspension burner that projects a flame down a longitudinal axis of combustion chamber for transferring heat to heat collection surface located radially from the flame, an exhaust opening vertically spaced from a distal end of the flame containment portion and vertically spaced lower of a substantial majority of the heat collection surface, and a temperature modulator that supplies a cooling air. A method of extracting energy from PAR fuel is disclosed.
