Biomass Gasification Power Generation System 

The basic principle of POWERMAX's biomass gasification power generation system(abbreviated as BGPS) is to convert Agriculture and forestry products and wood processing remains(including rick husks,wood powder,branches,offcuts,corn straw,rice straws,wheat straws,cotton straws,fruit shells,coconut shells,palm shells,bagasse,corncobs and etc.) into comnustible gas. It is then  used as fuel in gas combustion engine to generate electricity.Biomass gasification successfully conquers the disadvantages of biomass,such as low flammability and wide diversity.Biomass gasification system is characteristic of small land requirement and environment friendly. It's one of the most effective way of biomass utilization.

POWERMAX's BGPS process includes three steps. The First step is biomass gasification,which convert biomass into syngas. The Second step is syngas purification.The producer gas coming from gasifier usually contains contaminants including dust,coke,tar and ect. The contaminants will be removed by the gas purification system to ensure normal operation of gas engine.The Third step is power generating in gas combustion engine(spark-plug ignition type).The hign temperature exhuast gas may be reused by waste heat boiler to generate steam or hot water for  civil or industrial use.

The POWERMAX biomass gasification power generation systems are based on a modular concept and are able to applicable for 50-20000KW biomass power station .There are four series of biomass gasification system offered by POWERMAX which ranges from 50-2000KW of power generation:

CFBG(circulationg Fluidized Bed Gasifier) Series.
UFBG（Updraft Fixed-bed Gasifier）Series,
DFBG(Downdraft Fixed-bed Gasifier) Series,
TFBG(Twin-fire Fixed-bed Gasifier)series.

A series biomass generator sets from 50KW to 1200KW are developed by POWERMAX to combine with POWERMAX advanced gasification technology.These gas generator sets are using the high efficiency Siemens technology alternators ,Chinese top brand medium speed gas engine(500-1000rmp) with advanced European engine controlsystems.The high performance of the Powemax biomass gasification plants and the later production of electricity with the gensets represents represents a competitive solution when compared with conventional boiler-fired system.

“POWERMAX designs,projects and implements suitable solutions for each type of biomass residue.”

Comparing with other renewable power generating system,POWERMAX-BGPS is characteristic of:

1) Short project execution period.The power plant is normally started up within 4-6months after contract singing.

2) Low Investment(including equipment cost,civil work and installation cost).

3) Systems have Flexibility and Siplicity.As the POWERMAX-BGPS mainly consists of biomass gasifier system and gas combustion engine/generator(Spark-plug ignition type),it is very easy to operate.System can be stared or stopped any time,the switch time is very short. It has few requirements for the oeprator of power plant and also requires little O&M cost.

4) Clean technology.Biomass,as one kind of renewable energy,may reduce the emission of carbon dioxide,sulfur dioxide causing from fossil fuel.Nitrogen oxides emissin is very limited in our biomass gasification power generating system because of low temperature(700℃-900℃)。

5) Economic. POWERMAX-BGPS is capacity flexible.Even small size biomass power plant is also profitable.Simple process and less land requirements make biomass gasification power plant more economic comparing with other renewable energy Generally speaking,biomass gasification power generating is the most economic technology in renewable power generating plant.

6) Compare to Solar power plant.Wind turbine Power plant and Hydro power plant,minimum running hour of biomass power plant can be 7200-8000hrs per year when the biomass fuel is enough,which makes customer to achieve a short ROI period.
