Presentation Transcript

1. VISION: Collaborative and productive gathering place for bioeconomyinnovators MISSION: Shepherd exceptional ideas Safeguard these ideas and develop marketable products from the ideas. Overcome the expected challenges Accomplish successful home-grown wealth INDENTITY: Team of problem-solvers, with a transparent, and a pragmatic, no-nonsense approach. Open-minded, team-oriented, customer-focused, nimble and hard-charging. Believe everything is possible…….and what other might think “impossible” just takes a little longer, as we wait patiently for the appointed path to reveal itself.
2. New Product Awards
3. Understanding the Bioeconomy Value Chain Engineering Biomass to 21st Century Users has the Answers to Make it Work
4. Fuel Value Proposition Our process uses agricultural waste like corn stover and grass to create fuel that can be burned in coal fired boilers without modification to the feed and boiler systems of power plants The fuel then supplements coal and enables plants to meet emissions requirements without expensive expenditures i.e. new boilers Cost effective without government subsidies What is our technology? Patentable methods of creating coal interchangeable agricultural solid fuels
5. Supplements Coal
6. Stoker Application
7. Understanding the BioFuel Value Chain Engineering Biomass to 21st Century Users has the Answers to Make it Work
8. Novel Supply Development Approach eCARB Area #1 Multiple local utilities cross-matched with available supply. Identify harvest distance for diverse biomass sources. Initial area has potential for 500,000 – 1,000,000 tons per year in multi-year contracts. EWW technology enables transport via truck or rail. Looking at Expansion Quicker than Planned to Meet Emerging and Accelerating Timelines. eCARB Area #2 and #3 are in discussion. May be economical to combine resources from multiple supply areas.
9. BUILDCO 1 – Building Biomass Fuel Production Facilities – Modeled 300,000 ton capacity in 5 Plant Build-Out $50 million in annual economic activity 200 Sustained Jobs ~5,000,000 MMBTU producing ~40-50 MW of baseload biopower ~750,000 tons/year Carbon Savings 5 Typical Enginuity-licensed Fuel Plants 300,000 – 350,000 tons of engineered biomass fuel 400,000 tons of corn stover, grass, energy crops REFERENCE: University of Missouri Extension - Commercial Agriculture Program
10. VS Other Solid Fuel Alternatives
11. Experience & Challenges at Power Plant* Failure Mode & Effects Analysis (FMEA) *Columbia Water & Light, Columbia, MO & Independence Power & Light, Independence, MO Chopped “Loose” Biomass Typically Dismissed as Technically Unfeasible Requires Replacement of Boiler with Fluidized Bed Pellets (small round) Poor Pellet Durability – Caused lost material, dusting, fugitive emissions Material Flow to the Boiler – Early ignition in coal chute Moisture Up-Take During Storage – Desiccant, then degradation Woody Biomass Moisture Content – High and Variable Potential Fermentation & Storage Combustion Lower Energy Content – Boiler Effects Long-Term Supply – Risk of Carbon Neutrality VS. Price Other Issues Safety No Experience – Test Burn for Different Fuels are More Complex
12. Engineered Biomass Fuel Processing and Supply Innovation Material Science Innovation to Produce Solid Fuel Challenge to Produce Coal Supplement Transportable, Reliable, Sustainable (Green) Commodity Engineered Fuel: Capable of “any mix” of biomass Size, Shape & Durability is Key for Stoker Plants Engineered Technology: 95% Durable in Industry Test Current Technology: 58-89% (11-42% loss) Lump Coal is 70-85% Durable Other Enhancements Additives and Treatments to Boost BTU/lb Flowableand Grindable Increased Moisture & Weather Tolerance Potential for Significant Emission Reductions Additives to Further Manage Emissions & Fouling
13. Weatherable Intermediate Gave Path to Granulated Designed for Pulverized Coal Plants 20 grams
14. VS Other Renewable Power OR Emission Control Approaches
15. Fuel Commercialization Milestones Focused on Biomass Fuel Testing in MidWest, while Selling to East and West Coast Power Utilities COMPLETED: APPA Engineered Fuel Material Specification USDA REAP Grant for $500,000 Purchase Order for 700 tons from Columbia [Missouri] Water and Light to Complete MDNR Required Test Burn IN PROGRESS: Build and Equip Development Line to Fill Orders for Testing Quantities First Partnership for “Build-Corp” to Build Export-Focused (out of Missouri) Fuel Plant
