The inital Situation
After the devastating disaster in Fukushima, the German Government on
6 June 2011 decided the energy revolution. Thereafter, in Germany shut
down all nuclear power plants by 2022. To Compensation to the energy
needs largely from renewables covered.
In addition to the use of water, sun, wind and geothermal features in this
context, the energy production from renewable (raw) biomass.
Of particular significance receives the raw material wood. For the Federal
Republic of Germany has a forest area of about 11 million hectares, 31%
of state land to purchase. Of this, 8.7 million hectares of forestry utilized.
Furthermore, the increase in energy is only usable Wood
52 million MWh a year!
How to make use of this potential energy economically viable?
The answer is a XYLOGAS® wood gas power plant with the latest technology
Generation.In such a power plant by the gasification of wood is a pure
Wood gas produced, which drives a motor for the generation of electricity.
The electricity generated is fed into the public grid. Further, the generated
heat to an external heat customers, such as industrial and commercial
enterprises, for payment purposes only.

The benefits of energy production using wood gas at a
glance:
to the environment

Active environmental protection through the use of renewable energy

Energy use is CO2 neutral

No risk to future generations

Compliance with the Kyoto Agreement: CO2 reduction and increasing
the share renewable Energy to 12.5%
Moreover, in the long run, the demand for wood is by planting
fast growing tree species covered.
for the customer

The electricity produced can be fed into the public grid
(Compensation for EEG) or used on their own farms

A part of the generated heat is used for drying the wood for the
used power plant

As required, the heat can be used in the farm
or it is an external heat customers, such as industrial and commercial
operated public facilities or hospitals, for consideration for
made available

The trading of CO2 emission rights that it enables a company
union, through the successful sale of emission rights strategies
track and hereby achieve a significant improvement in the return
for heating customer

Contribution to environmental protection through the use of electricity and
heat from renewable energy

Independence in continually rising prices of oil and gas

Planning security through long-term supply contracts at fixed energy costs

Lower energy costs by using renewable raw materials, which
are much cheaper than fossil fuels

Development of wood gas technology
The wood gasification goes to Georges Christian
Peter Imbert back in 1920 one of the fixed-bed
reactor designed, in particular, in the second
World War and shortly thereafter used.
The prototype XYLOGAS®
The dream of the use of wood gas was
in recent years by many worldwide
Research institutions, businesses, developers and
Hobbyists pursued. However, almost all of the
complex requirements of the wood gas production
and cleaning failed.
Car with wood gas drive
Erwin Schiefer from Gnas in Austria has succeeded in 10 years of work, a
to develop fixed-bed gasifier of the brand "XYLOGAS" for the market. The prototype has a rated output of 220 kWe.
XYLOGAS® prototype plant in Gnas
In the development of approximately € 1.5 million was invested already. XYLOGAS
has over 51,000 hours experience. For this reason, we are the leader in this class,
experience and results of operations.
Furthermore, it is currently not aware of any other system in Europe, which in this
Segment of such a high number of operating hours for 8000 hours per year
reached.

The HGKW Bad Wildungen
In July 2010 XYLOGAS® mission to clean up the wood gas power plant
(HGKW) Bad Wildungen receive. There are 2 lines with a capacity of
220 kWe each. realized. The first line is the first Went into operation in June 2011
and has well passed the test.

Future use of wood gas technology
The greatest demand for this technology currently comes from Germany, because in
addition to the attractive feed-in tariffs, the implementation of the energy transition
with the phasing out of nuclear technology is required. Very Interesting is the Italian
market, since particularly high payments for the generated energy to be paid.
With the experience of the prototype
and the first on the market positionableth system is the XYLOGASSystem produced in series.
For this purpose, the components
are optimized so that the production
costs are reduced and parts are delivered in modular design.
of
The components of the complete module at a glance:
● Dry storage
● Gas production
● CHP
● Control room
● Gas cleaning
This wood gas plant generate from 1 kg of absolutely dry wood approximately1.2 kW
power and 2.4 kW of heat.
The interest and the associated demand for these XYLOGAS® - System are very large. Almost any biomass heating from a heat rated performance of more than one MW
is a potential customer. But also industrial establishments who wish to switch to alternative energy sources and must fulfilling the customer profile for this technology.
For the year 2012/13 projects for implementation to be implemented. One customer in
South Tyrol and in Slovakia 2012/13 with Xylogas system equipped.
Xylogas stands for quality and reliability at the highest level. Nothing is left to chance.
Therefore, a network of companies Competent actively involved in the implementation
of the projects.

Process engineering of HGKW
The process chain starts with the storage and drying of wood chips in this purpose built
warehouse.
From there, the timber is transported on a conveyor belt in a drying system, and after the drying
forwarded directly to the wood gasification.
Here the wood is in a thermochemical combustion process in three phases (pyrolysis,
Oxidation, reduction) is converted to gas.
A washer and a special filter clean after the gas before it enters the blower in a Motor is conducted.
The engine is part of the block-heatable power plant (CHP) in which the gas-Electricity and heat
converts. The energy generated is available for further use for comparison addition or can be fed
into electricity and heat networks.
