Biomass boiler and energy production module fuelled with green pruning residue
Ecologica Sud Servizi is an authorized solid waste manager and disposes of the wood biomass it acquires in its line of work on-site. The biomass – mainly tree branches and pruning residues from state forests – is chipped and fed into the waste-to-energy plant it operates to eliminate the costs (both economic and environmental) of…
LT series Energy Production Module
The LT sehries energy production modules produced by Zuccato Energia are a compact and efficient solution designed using the most advanced organic Rankine cycle (ORC) technologies. The modules utilise pressurised hot water at 160 C and are able to operate under partial load. They are best utilised in areas such as heat recovery from biomass…
The spiralling environmental cost of our lithium battery addiction
Although lithium batteries are not bioenergy, they are applicable to decarbonising. Lithium-ion batteries are a crucial component of efforts to clean up the planet. The battery of a Tesla Model S has about 12 kilograms of lithium in it, while grid storage solutions that will help balance renewable energy would need much more. Demand for…
Bioenergy Fact Sheet – Victorian State Government
Victorian Renewable Energy Target The Victorian Renewable Energy Target (VRET) will see 25 per cent of the State’s electricity generation supplied from renewable sources by the year 2020, increasing to 50 per cent by 2030. These targets will encourage investment in new energy projects, create jobs, lower electricity prices and secure Victoria’s electricity supply. Increasing…
Non-renewable Energy – National Geographic Encyclopedic Entry
Non-renewable energy comes from sources that will run out or will not be replenished in our lifetimes—or even in many, many lifetimes. Most non-renewable energy sources are fossil fuels: coal, petroleum, and natural gas. Carbon is the main element in fossil fuels. For this reason, the time period that fossil fuels formed (about 360-300 million…
Biomass Energy – National Geographic Encyclopedic Entry
The article gives a good basic introduction to various aspects of biomass processing and provides a fairly balanced discussion of advantages and disadvantages. People have used biomass energy—energy from living things—since the earliest “cave men” first made wood fires for cooking or keeping warm. Today, biomass is used to fuel electric generators and other machinery….
