GermanyProject year 2020Commissioning 2020

A biomass CHP plant supplies a neighbouring paper mill with electricity and heat – from landscape maintenance wood, tomato vines and screen overflow.

36.5 MW

Thermal input

42 t/h

Steam output

max. 10 MW

Electrical output

Challenge

The intended fuels are difficult: landscape maintenance wood, compost screening residues, tomato vines and similar special biomass with a moisture content of up to 60%.

Solution

Kablitz supplied the plant from the walking floors for the various fuels to the stack: a fully adiabatic grate firing, the steam boiler for 42 t/h at 81 bar and 470 °C with auxiliary lines, and flue gas cleaning by dry sorption with hydrated lime.
