The true cost of biomass

Biomass has become a popular topic of discussion among boiler owners and operators. With the recent federal incentives to convert existing infrastructure into a more “green” system, many companies have begun providing expertise to retrofit...


Effective materials handling for low cost, high quality products

For many years, inadequate material handling has cost production companies enormous amounts of money. During those same years, equipment suppliers looked primarily at establishing or bidding the “lowest price” proposals and have disregarded...


Preventing dust explosions
Advantages of fuel pucks & briquettes vs. pellets

The current method of biofuel densification - pelletizing - can be best described as “compacting dust fines” into a typical 6 mm diameter cylindrical shape, approx 12 mm long. Pellets made from dust fines, if not handled properly, can cause...


Common sense solutions to minimize emissions

When emissions exceed regulatory standards, plant managers are often faced with the dilemma of cutting back production in order to maintain compliancy or incur stiff penalties. Plants that are forced to run boilers at a lower level to scale...


Turning garbage into gold
Composting pays off for Resort Municipality of Whistler

At first glance, a plan to turn municipal garbage, sewage solids and waste wood into marketable compost, while saving money for the community, sounds about as likely as Rumpelstiltskin spinning straw into gold, but for the Resort Municipality of Whistler,...


Commercial boiler line for waste oil fuel

Columbia Boiler Company’s waste oil-fired boiler line services a diverse range of commercial and industrial applications, including biodiesel production, in-floor radiant heating and steam production....


Direct steam injection heaters from Hydro-Thermal

Hydro-Thermal Hydroheaters are an industry standard heating technology for biofuels production and a smart energy investment for other fluid heating applications as well.

The Jetcooker unleashes the...


Solid fuel combustion system from Jackson Lumber Harvester

Webb Burners manufactured by Jackson Lumber Harvester Co. Inc. are suited for generating large quantities of heat for industrial processes, at substantially less cost per BTU than traditional oil- or gas-fired...


Biomass pellet mills feature unique design for flexibility, lower lifecycle cost

HiTechAgro, a world leader in biomass densification technology, offers pellet mills from ½-5 ton capacity, with a unique patented design for greater durability. Compared to the conventional rotating ring...


Komax Klean Wall Jacketed Heat Exchanger

Komax continues to deliver innovation to the biofuels industry, as shown in its patented Klean Wall Heat Exchanger. By paying careful attention to each aspect of every project, Komax delivers solutions that exceed expectations...


Timing is critical when purchasing a CEMS

Putting in power generation? A boiler, Thermo Oxidizer, gas turbine or process that is fired? Are you burning, gas, oil, coal, wood, biomass or maybe a combination of fuels?

The last thing some companies think of when putting in these projects...


Cryogenic Processing: Why & When?

Cryogenic Processing

In 2008, Freez-it-Cleen created a buzz with a unique cleaning process that is saving the ethanol industry millions of dollars through improved efficiency...


Thermal hydrolysis in biomass feedstock conversion processes

Introduction

Thermal Hydrolysis is a thermal process and its goal is to prepare biomass for a more efficient conversion to bioethanol. It is a process necessary for second generation biofuels where the micro structure...
