Typically the biomass material is predominantly or wholly of vegetable material or of protein based material or a mixture comprising at least two of the following materials: vegetable and/or protein and/or other carbon based material.
Description
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ENERGY GENERATION
TECHNICAL FIELD
This invention is concerned with method and apparatus for energy generation.
BACKGROUND ART
There is a world wide demand for electrical energy which is currently generated in a large number of ways by means involving combustion of hydrocarbons, hydroelectric generation, wind and tidal powered generators and nuclear power There is also currently widespread concern as to diminishing availability of fuel oil and also to climatic effects arising from indiscriminate and uncontrolled fuel oil combustion processes. As a consequence considerable effort are being directed to identify further sources of oil and to develop oil using devices so as to improve operational efficiency and to reduce the amount of waste products generated by the use of such devices and the adverse effects arising from such products.
Disci.osujop INVENTION According to a first aspect of the present invention there is provided a method of power generation comprising the steps of: gathering biomass material; * converting the gathered biomass material into pellets of predetermined :" sizeorarangeof sizes; S...
*: . subjecting the pellets to a pyrolitic process to generate a combustible gas; and burning the combustible gas in a combustion engine to generate a power output.
According to a first preferred version of the first aspect of the present invention the biomass material is predominantly or wholly vegetable material.
According to a second preferred version of the first aspect of present invention the biomass material is predominantly or wholly protein based material.
According to a third preferred version of the first aspect of the present invention the biomass material is a mixture comprising at least two of the following materials: vegetable and/or protein and/or other carbon based material.
According to a second aspect of the present invention there is provided a power generator operated according to the method of the first aspect or any preferred version thereof. Preferably the generator provides for the steps of subjecting the pellets and of burning the combustible gas to be undertaken in a self contained unit. Typically the sell contained unit is mobile.
Broadly the invention involves four stages.
Stage 1-Biomass Recovery The purpose of this stage is to recover biomass material in an appropriate form for use in subsequent stages in the process. The sources of such material are very widespread and the material can be in different phases. Thus this stage could *:* . involve, amongst other things, the recovery of: vegetable material recovered from waste land or cultivated g round; * * marine molluscs, such as plankton, from a water environment; or **** * * * animal carcase or other animal derived material from a suitable source.
Stage 2-Compaction or Pelletising In this stage the biomass product of the first stage is subjected to a compaction extrusion process to generate pellets of biomass material of a suitable size for subsequent storage or for processing through Stages 3 and 4. Also to recover produce oil/fat squeezed from the biomass and stored with expelled water for later separation.
Stage 3-Gas Generation In this stage the compacted or pelletised material from the second stage is subjected to a pyrolitic process to create a gaseous fueL Stage 4-Power Generation In this stage the gaseous fuel generated in Stage 3 is used in a prime mover such as an internal combustion engine to provide a required power output. The gaseous fuel provides for a much less noxious exhaust from a prime mover than arises from currently available units. In addition the invention provides for what is believed to be an overall carbon dioxide neutral.

* MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVEWrI0N
*.: The drawing shows a method of power generation enclosed within envelope 11 * :*. involving four stages.
Stage 1-Biomass Recovery The purpose of this stage is to recover biomass material in an appropriate form for subsequent stages in the process. The sources of such material are very widespread and the material can be in different phases. Thus this stage could involve, amongst other things, the recovery of: vegetable material such as from waste or cultivated ground; marine molluscs, such as plankton, from a water environment; or animal carcase or other animal derived material from a suitable source or mixtures of these materials.
In this embodiment the biomass material is vegetation mowed or otherwise recovered from un-cultivated land. The gathering is carried out by a mowing unit which further includes a size reduction step to output recovered biomass material in a suitable form for the next stage of compaction or pelletising. The recovery process necessarily involves mobile equipment of some size in order to gather a useful amount of material and to reduce it in size. The stages following the first are readily undertaken by equipment having a much smaller envelope than that required for the equipment of the first stage.
Stage 2-Compaction or Pelletising The output of the first stage is fed by way of a screw feed 12 into, inthis case, a pelletising machine 13. Other compaction methods can be used.
Effectively the biomass material from the first stage is driven by the screw feed *.
12 along a tube of reducing cross section until the material is in the form of a rod *. * of the required pellet diameter. Extruded material is then cut into suitable lengths to provide pellets of the required size which are then either passed by transfer 14 immediately to Stage 3 or by transfer 15 to a storage means 16 from *: * which pellets can be subsequently moved to Stage 3 or elsewhere by transfer 17.
Water and oil/fat generated in this stage is removed by transfer 31 for storage or for use elsewhere in the process.
Stage 3-Gas Generation Pellets from the previous stage are fed into a down draught gas unit 18 to provide for gasification. Oxygen, that is to say air, is injected by transfer 42 This involves partial oxidation (that is to say involving more oxidation than for pyrolysis but less than for complete combustion) at elevated temperature of the carbonaceous biomass pellets. Waste heat in this case is recycled from Stage 4 and used for pyrolysis.
Gasification takes place in two main stages. First, the biomass pellets are partially burned to form producer gas and charcoal. Jn the second stage, the carbon dioxide and water produced in the first stage are chemically reduced by the charcoal, forming carbon monoxide and hydrogen. Gasification requires temperatures of around 800°C or more to minimize the residues of tars and high hydrocarbons in the main product of this stage which is producer gas passed to the final stage by transfer 19.
Stage 4-Power Generation In this stage an internal combustion engine 20 is used to generate power by :.: burning the producer gas of the previous stage along with a supply of oxygen, such as air, fed in by transfer 21. As a result electrical power is produced by way of generator 22 and passed out of the generator by way of transfer 23. In this * embodiment power is fed by transfer 54 to supply line 53 from which power is :r drawn as required for Stages 1 to 3. In the main output power is provided for * e* locomotion of a vehicle in which the engine is incorporated. However power output can be in the form of mechanical power. Waste heat from Stage 4 is fed back to Stage 3 by way of transfer 51.
This embodiment is concerned with a vehicular application for the invention (whether a land, water borne or air vehicle. In alternative the invention can be embodied in a static version where the internal combustion engine is used to drive a rotary generator, a pump or other mechanical device.
A data processing control system 55 provides for optiinised operation of each stage and of the power generator as a unitary combination of the stages. It is envisaged that in some embodiments a data processing system can be used to control repetitive harvesting as an alternative to direct human controL In another aspect of the present invention a power generator is provided incorporating equipment to make use of the method of the first aspect or any preferred version of the first aspect. Typically the equipment for the third and fourth stages would be incorporated in a mobile unit typically one propelled by means of power generated by the incorporated equipment.
INDUSTRIAL AFPLICABILrI-Y The present invention provides an economical process for generating power and ftiel and providing, amongst other advantages, an exhaust output including much less noxious products than arise from conventional generation systems. * . * S S * *5
