Oscar,
Thanks. This is a good start. Tom From: Gasification [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Oscar Jimenez Cabeza Sent: Thursday, August 14, 2014 11:14 AM To: 'Discussion of biomass pyrolysis and gasification' Subject: Re: [Gasification] Gasification or Pyrolysis + Absorption Chiller for Fruit Dear Tom, I have always been interested in generating cold by using producer gas. I think it has been an issue which has unfortunately deserved little attention, when compared to power and heat production. In order to answer your question, I am sending my preliminary estimates on the practical refrigeration capacity you are asking for. 1. Assuming 2.5 tpd of biomass to be gasified, it should deliver roughly 240 m3/h of producer gas. 2. Considering a COP value of 0.6 for the chiller. 3. LHV of the gas of 5000 kJ/m3. My modest estimates of the refrigeration capacity should be around 200 kW. I hope those figures could be of help to you. Kindest regards. Oscar. De: Gasification [mailto:[email protected]] En nombre de Tom Miles Enviado el: jueves, 14 de agosto de 2014 12:08 Para: 'Discussion of biomass pyrolysis and gasification' Asunto: [Gasification] Gasification or Pyrolysis + Absorption Chiller for Fruit In the tropics there are needs for making char and cooling fruit. Has anyone coupled a small pyrolyzer or gasifier up with a boiler and an absorption chiller? What sizes and capacities make sense? We're looking at a fuel input of 2-3 tpd. How much char can I make and what practical refrigeration capacity can I generate? I am assuming that the chiller can get down to about 36 F (2 C). The cooler the better.
