[Gasification] Manure Gasifier in Colorado

[Jim Leach]

I have heard about a chicken manure gasification project in Portugal.  I
will try to find out the status of that one.

  Chad, the link you provided does not work, is there any others ?

Hello Li,
I don't want to discouraged you but this is not a well developed field.
Litter gasification is something I have worked on some, though the project
is on hold due to a lack of funding. www.lostriverfarms.com
<http://www.lostriverfarms.com/>   Gasification or pyrolysis is a good
option though I would not rule out digestion.  One of the main drawbacks to
digestion is the lack of methagans in the litter.  At Lost River Farms we
successfully produced burnable gas (however somewhat low btu content) that
could be used in a boiler.  The key is automation of the perimeters that
produces this gas as it is not cost effective for most farmers to hire
someone to run the process.  Because this process is somewhat complex it
appears that the few companies that have worked on these projects end up
scaleing their units fairly large so as to bring in litter from surrounding
farms rather than developing their units for individual farm use.

Hi list members,

Concerning manure, I was contacted by a farmer recently who wanted to treat
his chicken manure.

He have chicken manure (only manure, no bed material) with a moiture of 13%m
(drying is done directly by the heat given by chicken...it seems that this
heat will be lost if it is not used to dry chicken manure).

This manure can not be used in a biogas plant due to its low moisture
content.

Actually, in France, manure gasification or incineration should meet the
requirement of MSW incineration.

I am looking for manure thermal treaters, but it seems that though some
companies claimed on their website that their technologies could gasify or
burn manure, when I contact them, they say they are not focus on this issue.

Benjamin,

 

Thanks. Biogas is a great route for manure. Thermal gasification of manure
has always been a challenge. 

 

Tom
