Combustion tests
Experimental design
Parameters of investigation
• Technical evaluation (inflammability, flying sparks, slagging, ash removal)
• Emissions (Particulate matter, CO, NOx, SO2)
Operation modes
• Heat-up phase
• Partial load (50% of nominal output)
• Full load (100% of nominal output)
![Page 9: Results from combustion tests and energy balances](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070610/62c31e8906039d1e5c56c889/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Combustion tests
Technical evaluation
• Fast ignition
• Full and bright flame
• Flying sparks observed without influence on PM in the flue gas
• Light slagging
• Unhampered air flow
• Ash was crushed by ash slide
• Unhampered discharge ofthe ash
• Full power of 120 kW waspermanently achieved

Conclusions
Combustion tests:
•Very good technical performance
•Emissions are below thresholds, but additional filter required
Energy balances:
•Mainly dependent on local biomass availability
•Fossil energy consumption of up to 3000 inhabitants per project region could be replaced by renewables
