BIOMASS POWER

Cogeneration | Biogas | Biomass Briquetting | Biomass Gasifier | Wood Burning Stoves | Waste to Energy 

     OVERVIEW

  • Biomass  is an organic matter i.e. photochemical approach to harness solar energy  can be converted into other forms of energy like heat, electricity etc. using available conversion processes.

  • Biomass like agro residue, wood residue and food processing residue are used   as fuels for producing steam in power plants using combustion technology.  This steam is used to drive turbine, which drives a generator for producing power.

  • Depletion of conventional fuels and environmental problems make biomass power generation an attractive option. Of all the technologies available for utilizing biomass for power generation, direct combustion route is recognized as more resourceful and economical option for generation of grid quality power .

    BENEFITS

  • Availability of biomass in almost all geographical locations.

  • Electrical energy can be produced in large scale at low cost.
