Biomass What is Biomass? Carbon Neutral Local Sourcing Power Generation

Current Problems Moisture Content Hammer Mill (20%-30%) Pellet Mill (MC < 15%)

Conveyor Dryer Very Complicated Cost High Maintenance

Initial Storage Shipping Container Active Solar Air Heating Forced Air Goal of 30 Percent

Moisture Content Experiment Temperatures Times Oven Issues Problems with Airflow

Results Constant Drying Rate Falling Drying Rate Bound Water

New Design 1. Hopper 2. Auger 1 3. Auger 2 4. Intermediate Storage 5. Electric 3-Phase AC Motor 6. Gas-Powered Motor 7. Condensor and Flue

Motor Control 5 HP - 10 HP Electric and Gas Motor Augers in series: test of Strengths/Weaknesses Electric: Phase Conversion Losses, Gas: Factors for Motor - Make, Air Intake, Load

Solar Thermal System Existing System Sustainability Center Temperature Range (160 to 200 Fahrenheit)

Solar Thermal System The LochinvarTiSun SCH 090 flat plate collector 84,500 BTU/day for Solar Heating Oriented due South

Solar Radiation Solar data from the NREL Exceeds the standard BTU/day for collector Adjust for maximum exposure

Connecting the Heat Exchange Lochinvar RJA200 200 Gallons 3 inlet/outlets

Supplementary Heating System 10 HP ~ 8 kW Output Minimum Operating Temp for Exhaust 275 F Exhaust Temps. Up to 600 F at 3,600 RPM Galvanized Aluminum vs. Stainless Steel Safety Concerns

Liquid to Gas Heat Exchanger Finned Coil Heat Exchanger Design maximizes exposure duration Low powered fan
