Description:
Biomass is a meaningful energy source for the decentralized power generation. The combination of a 2-stage thermochemical conversion unit with an Inverse Brayton Cycle (IBC) is subject to present research activities. Several advantages are expected compared to commercial available concepts. A commercially proven turbocharger from the automotive industry is used for the IBC unit. No cost-intensive gas cleaning is required due to an almost dust and tar free biomass conversion. The influence of feedstock characteristics on the thermochemical conversion, emissions and overall plant performance is subject to process optimization studies. Furthermore validation of the concept is target of a demonstration phase which is planned at later stage of the research activities.
