BIOFUELS Shaelie Harper Thomas Devries Kelly Petrasky Jaimie Cromwell
Bioliq Process • 1)Rapid Pyrolysis • Hot sand, pressure • Char, oil • 2) Slurry Production • Char and oil mix • bioslurry • 3) Gasification • Bioslurry w/ oxygen through gasifier • 4) Purification and Conditioning • Salts, h2S, COS, CS2, HCI, NH3, HCN • Prevents poisoning • 5) Synthesis • Bio-liquid
Benefits • Green Globally, and Locally by reducing, • greenhouse gases • Pollution • CO2 emissions • Use of parts of the biomass that is not normally used • Don’t need to rely on other countries • More jobs
Cons • Uses top soil • Non-renewable • Uses lots of water • Need more to grow more biomass to feed and for fuel • Takes time to grow the biomass • Needs a lot of land • Biodiversity loss • Increase costs of crops
Biogas & Agro - Biofuel What it produces: Heat Electrical power Automotive fuel
Every agricultural enterprise produces organic wastes • Agricultural enterprises produce liquid manure from livestock and can be produced into biogas • Carbon Dioxide is releases during biogas production • Energy produced from organic waste has the most potential of savings on greenhouse gases • .
Biogas plants • Biogas plants need to be upgraded along with agro-biofuels. • The system requires the increase of concentration in the biogas mixture. • Consists nearly 100% of methane • Gas grid can produce heat and automotive fuel
