Why biomass fired boiler is so popular?
Along with society's growing demand for energy, as the main energy source, fossil fuel is decreasing rapidly. Therefore, looking for a renewable alternative energy resource becomes the focus of social attention. Biomass as an ideal renewable energy, in the current world energy consumption, is paid more and more attention to.
What is biomass and biomass system
Biomass is biological material derived from living, or recently living organisms. It most often refers to plants or plant-derived materials which are specifically called lignocellulosic biomass. As a renewable energy source, biomass can either be used directly via combustion to produce heat, or indirectly after converting it to various forms of biofuel. Conversion of biomass to biofuel can be achieved by different methods which are broadly classified into: thermal, chemical, and biochemical methods.
Historically, humans have harnessed biomass-derived energy since the time when people began burning wood to make fire. Even in today's modern era, biomass is the only source of fuel for domestic use in many developing countries.
Biomass systems using wood or agro based products provide our clients with genuine renewable energy. In additon to their environmental benefit, ZG systems deliver a favorable return on investement with fuel costs of about 50% (or less) per MMBTU compared to natural gas.
Categories of biomass materials
Within this definition, biomass for energy can include a wide range of materials. The realities of the economics mean that high value material for which there is an alternative market, such as good quality, large timber, are very unlikely to become available for energy applications. However there are huge resources of residues, co-products and waste that exist in the UK which could potentially become available, in quantity, at relatively low cost, or even negative cost where there is currently a requirement to pay for disposal.
There are five basic categories of material: Virgin wood, from forestry, arboricultural activities or from wood processing, Energy crops: high yield crops grown specifically for energy applications, Agricultural residues: residues from agriculture harvesting or processing, Food waste, from food and drink manufacture, preparation and processing, and post-consumer waste, Industrial waste and co-products from manufacturing and industrial processes.
Conclusion
Energy solutions based on biomass and bio-fuels provide clean and renewable energy for large national and international companies. Green-thinking companies are now using bio fuels to mitigate the impact their activities have on the environment by reducing emissions of greenhouse gases. This can also generate earnings for your company by saving money on energy costs, and by the sale of carbon credits. Achieve energy independence, get off the Gas Grid, and no longer be at the mercy of the oil markets. ZG Boiler is a leader in the development of boiler technology and energy management projects through sustainable solutions for renewable energy and energy efficiency by biomass. ZG Biomass Boiler Systems will strengthen your bottom line by reducing, or even eliminating your energy and disposal costs altogether, through the combustion of renewable fuel sources, also known as Biomass.
