Development of a combustion technology for small scale CHP based on external fired gas turbine

One alternative method for small scale combined heat and power production is to develop technologies based on external gas turbines.

Thermochemical energy conversion of biomass -Combustion

Future systems for biomass combustion with low emissions (Future Biotech)

The project will significantly contribute to / assist the development of future local fireplaces and automated biomass systems up to 20MWth. The work is based on three approaches: literature review and synthesis, experimental work and modeling, focusing on effective measures to reduce particle emissions.

Thermochemical energy conversion of biomass -Gasification

Renewable, recyclable and biodegradable products are the backbone of a climate-friendly society. The Finnish and Swedish industrial development projects are presently leading the global development on this pathway to renewable transportation fuels. The Nordic forest industry creates new concepts and provides solutions to mitigate climate challenge. One of the most interesting concepts is the integrated production of pulp and paper products and transportation fuels.

New gasification project ”Pressurized Entrained flow Biomass Gasification”

Together with Energy Technology Center in Piteå, the division of Energy Engineering will carry out research in the area of entrained flow gasification of biomass. The objective is to demonstrate conversion of wood based biomass to high quality syngas, suitable for production of renewable biofuels, such as Methanol and Dimethyl ehter (DME).

Renewable motor fuels from the forest industry via Pressurized Entrained flow Biomass Gasification

The needs of fossil fuels is increasing while, the resources decrease more rapidly, this in combination with the negative effects that arise from fossil fuels use, creates a demand and need for new green fuels.

Black Liquor Gasification

About 40 TWh black liquor produces yearly at the Swedish paper mills. Pressurised black liquor gasification is an alternative technique that in the long run can be able to replace the conventional recovery boiler process with an increasing electricity production of about 1000 MW as consequence.
