Biomass resources, fuel preparation and utilization for improving the fuel flexibility of advanced power plants
L. Rosendahl, Aalborg University, Denmark
Abstract:
This chapter addresses aspects of using biomass rather than biomass fuels. The concept of CO2 neutrality is discussed, followed by classification of biomasses relevant for power plant use. A brief discussion of conversion technologies is given, as it applies to choice of fuels, followed by issues of biomass resource availability. The chapter also contains chemical and physical characteristics of a variety of biomasses and biomass mixes, as well as a discussion of pretreatment and fuel preparation technologies.
