Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: S2This study gauges loggers' perceptions of the impact of large biomass demand centers (electrical power generation) on the forest resource base in the Northeast. The loggers who supply these demand centers are business people with large capital investments in highly mechanized harvesting systems. Most of the loggers surveyed strongly believed that the post-harvest stand has improved as a result of fuelwood chipping; however, the impact of chip harvesting on the forest resource base was not clear.S3.

This book was released on 1978 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether sufficient quantities of wood are physically and institutionally available to fuel a wood-fired power plant in northern Vermont is determined. The forests of northern Vermont are first characterized, then the basis for ascertaining how much wood physically exists in the area is provided. The quantities of wood available are assessed with both traditional and new whole-tree harvesting technologies. Following demonstation that sufficient supplies of wood can be physically obtained from the forest, the geographical, institutional, social, and economic constraints of wood availability are examined. A best possible estimate of the wood actually available at acceptable cost over the projected life of a 50-MW plant is provided.

Download or read book Wood Burning for Power Production written by and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wood-fired boiler at the Vermont State Hospital in Waterbury, Vermont was investigated in order to identify environmental and economic problems associated with increased use of wood as fuel. The investigators observed that the low amount of stack emissions contained particulates that were extremely effective light scatterers. An analysis of the entire system was performed in order to investigate the particulate growth and the conversion of gaseous material to particulates within the system. Initial findings indicate that a good deal of particulate formation takes place within and after the cyclone, thus rendering the cyclone somewhat ineffective in this system. Meteorological data were acquired in the vicinity of the experimental site. Background concentrations were measured using hi-vol samplers and a Tracer experiment was performed to indicate the direction of plume travel. These data were incorporated into the Los Alamos Visibility Model to simulate the actual appearance of the plume with a variety of boiler sizes. This simulation gives one an indication of how large a boiler, sited in this location, can be before the opacity of the plume becomes aesthetically offensive. An economic assessment of the wood burning activities at Waterbury and a number of other sites is included in this report.

This book was released on 2017-08-18 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To achieve the target of 23% renewable energy by 2020, Indonesia has been actively exploring options to loosen its dependence on fossil fuels. While biofuels have been developing fast and remain a priority for the government, wood-based energy also holds great potential. This report is a first attempt to assess its state of development and feasibility. Wood-based energy could be based on the high-profile large-scale industrial tree plantation program in Indonesia. This is one of the largest in the world with millions of hectares planted, but it has failed to achieve all of its public objectives. The government envisions its revival, with bioenergy as an alternative to the mature pulp and paper market. To do so, a flagship feed-in tariff policy has been put in place as an incentive for power plants to using biomass (or biogas material). Our research – based on intensive interactions with stakeholders at all levels, secondary data and three case studies – leads to one straightforward message that this source of energy is not going to represent a significant share of the energy mix for a long time. Major obstacles include the difficulty in establishing and managing large-scale tree plantations dedicated to energy production with recurrent claims and conflicts on the ground, the inability of the feed-in tariff policy to compensate investors for the risks of shifting to a new type of energy, the absence of subsidies provided to the state-owned electricity company that sees little interest in buying relatively expensive power, and the lack of proof of concept that lowers the probability of significant investments in this field.

Download or read book Bioenergy from Wood written by Thomas Seifert and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-02 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is written for scientists and practitioners interested in deepening their knowledge of the sustainable production of bioenergy from wood in tropical and sub-tropical countries. Utilising the value chain concept, this book outlines the necessary aspects for managing sustainable bioenergy production. A wide range of topics is covered including biomass localization, modelling and upscaling, production management in woodlands and plantations, and transport and logistics. Biomass quality and conversion pathways are examined in order to match the conversion technology with the available biomass. A section is dedicated to issues surrounding sustainability. The issues, covered in a life-cycle assessment of the bioenergy system, include socio-economic challenges, local effects on water, biodiversity, nutrient-sustainability and global impacts. Through this holistic approach and supporting examples from tropical and sub-tropical countries, the reader is guided in designing and implementing a value chain as the main management instrument for sustainable wood.
