Biomass fuel power generation

With the increasing energy demand, traditional fossil energy is facing increasing pressure, and green and renewable biomass fuel has become an important choice for people to seek energy alternatives. As one of the main biomass fuels, wood pellets are widely used In the power generation of biomass fuel, it has become an important promoter of the development of clean energy.

Biomass fuel power generation is a process of using biomass resources for energy conversion. The heat energy generated by burning biomass is used to drive generators to generate electricity. Biomass resources include waste and by-products generated in agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and other fields, such as Chaff, sawdust, straw, etc., as well as biomass crops specially planted for energy, are widely used in power generation, heat supply and other fields due to their green, renewable, and low-carbon advantages.

As a common biomass fuel, wood pellets are a fuel made by compressing wood into small particles. Wood pellets are widely used in biomass fuel power generation, mainly because of their high combustion efficiency, high calorific value, and low moisture content. , environmental protection and other advantages.

First of all, the combustion efficiency of wood pellets is high. Because the shape and size of wood pellets are relatively stable, and they have high density and specific surface area, they can obtain high heat output during combustion, thereby improving power generation efficiency. High calorific value, depending on the type and quality of wood pellets, its calorific value is usually above 4000 kcal/kg, which is higher than many other biomass fuels, so it can improve the efficiency of power generation. In addition, the moisture content of wood pellets is low, usually at Below 10%, it can reduce the water vapor emission during the combustion process, reduce pollution, and thus have a better protection effect on the environment. In addition, because the wood pellets are processed, they can reduce the emission of pollutants after compression, drying and other processes, thereby further reducing the impact on the environment.

In addition to the above-mentioned advantages, wood pellets also have some other advantages, such as stable supply of wood pellets, because wood resources are relatively abundant, so wood pellets can be regularly collected, processed and stored to ensure a stable supply of wood pellets, in addition, due to the size and The shape is relatively stable, so transportation and storage are relatively convenient, which can reduce logistics costs.

It is worth noting that biomass fuel power generation is not only an environmentally friendly and sustainable energy alternative, but also helps to promote economic development. For example, biomass fuel power generation can promote rural economic development and increase farmers’ income by converting agricultural and forestry by-products into Biomass fuel can bring additional income to farmers.

Generally speaking, the application of wood pellets in biomass fuel power generation is more and more widely used, and has obvious environmental protection and economic benefits. The fuel will be further developed and applied.
