The Care for the Environment

The Project

Description of Our Community

In this community there are consumers like us who are interested in environment-friendly products, local business people who are trying to make use of natural resources, and research institutes who are helping make the economy and the environment better. Our project hopes to connect these three kinds of people so that we can know each other better and care more about our environment.

Greetings,

Wood Ash: An Alternative Liming Material for Agricultural Soils
Alberta Agriculture and Rural Development

Many forestry facilities in Alberta use bark, sawdust and yard waste, commonly referred to as "hog fuel," to generate steam, electricity and heat for plant operations. There are also several facilities that use hog fuel as an energy source to generate electricity. More than 180,000 tonnes of energy system wood ash produced annually at pulp mills, sawmills, oriented strand board and fibre board plants is currently disposed of in industrial or regional landfills.

NEWMOA FACT SHEET: Beneficial Use of Wood Ash on Agricultural Land
April 6, 2001, Northeast Waste Management Officals Association

This fact sheet is intended to provide general information to potential users of unadulterated1 wood
combustion ash as an agricultural amendment. It is the responsibility of the producer and user of the ash to determine the appropriateness of a particular application and to select applicable tests and
specifications to facilitate its use and environmental protection. Potential users of unadulterated wood
combustion ash on agricultural land should contact the appropriate state regulatory program to identify specific use conditions and permit requirements. A listing of state contacts is located at the end of this fact sheet.

Best Management Practices for Wood Ash as a Soil Amendment
Prepared by Mark Risse, Extension Engineer, Updated by Julia Gaskin, Land Application Specialist 2002, Cooperative Extension Service,The University of Georgia College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences

Wood was burned in the United States in the 1700s through the early 1900s to produce ash for chemical extraction. The ash was used mainly to produce potash for fertilizer and alkali for industry. As other potash production technologies became more economical, the value of wood ash as a raw material dropped.

Pro-Natura Newsletter about Green charcoal and Biochar/Agrichar
Guy F. Reinaud, ProNatura, December 2008

ProNaturaProNatura

Hello,

You will find attached the Pro-Natura International Newsletter about Green charcoal used either as renewable household energy or in the agronomic field as Biochar/Agrichar, increasing substantially and ecologically soil fertility.

We will be happy to provide any further information you might need.

All the very best.

World premiere of a pyrolysis plant combined with a Stirling engine
Danish Stirling, October 24, 2008
AarstiderneAarstiderne
On October 24th the Danish Minister for the Environment Troels Lund Poulsen officially inaugurated the new pyrolysis plant at Barritskov Gods supplied by Stirling Denmark. The plant is the worlds first pyrolysis plant based on a Stirling engine and will provide heat and power to the facilities. Furthermore, the plant will produce a valuable charcoal for soil improvement and CO2 sequestration. The plant has been designed by Stirling Denmark based on the SD4 engine and on research on pyrolysis at DTU, Denmark. The plant will initially run on wood chips from recycled wooden crates, but the plant is expected to be able to handle many different types of biomass.

A charcoal production plant that also generates heat and electricity from the by-product gas
Biofuel Energy Sustems, Sustainable Energy Ltd., UK, 2004
BES Carbonizer

In 2004 Biofuel Energy Systems Ltd. developed a plant for charcoal production, which uses the gases given off during production to drive a gas turbine, generating heat and electricity. The electricity generated can be used on site (especially useful in remote areas with no electrical grid connection) or sold back to the grid for additional profit.

For now I want to talk about basic Design Brief Essentials, then design particulars.
The design essentials identified so far :

1. Good conversion quality of feedstock to char.

Requires:- 500C core temp of char vessel (need: probe), therefore ~800C outer firebox
temperature, and enough thermal momentum to hold the firebox temps for an hour (soak);
therefore efficient insulation R values, and thermal mass, so: firebricks and cladding/mudding
are favoured. Additional small bourry box for soak may be necessary.
