Heat Value of Wood Waste

How do Fuels Compare?

This process recently made Inc. Magazine’s “Green 50” list and was one of 10 clean energy start-ups chosen for California's Clean Energy Fund investment portfolio.

 

New technology converts the world's most abundant energy source into "clean coal" for a cost at or below the world's highest quality raw coals.

 

Our goal is to provide a clean, cost-effective, alternative fuel that addresses today’s power demands and increasing environmental challenges. This proprietary technology uses electromagnetic energy to reduce the moisture, ash, sulfur and mercury in coal and to make it burn more efficiently and cleanly. Coal processed with this technology is a stable, high-quality end product that allows our customers to optimize efficiency and increase yields.

 

Our supplier creates highly efficient, environmentally friendly, clean coal from low-value coals using a proprietary process. Their technology reduces moisture, ash and pollutants while boosting energy density. This clean, efficient process can help reduce acid rain, particulate matter and greenhouse gases.

This breakthrough technology helps provide cleaner coal in two ways: it allows plant operators to use a naturally cleaner type of coal that hasn't been a good option in the past—such as Powder River Basin coal—and the process itself can reduce pollutants in all types of coal.

 

Our technology reduces moisture, ash, all three forms of sulfur, chlorine, and mercury. The process lowers levels of harmful chemicals before the coal is burned, rather than trying to clean up harmful emissions afterward.

 

For two pollutants in particular—sulfur dioxide and particulate matter—research shows the this process can cut emissions at the burn site by as much as 50%.

Higher Energy Content, Lower Emissions of Pollutants

This patent-pending technology can reduce moisture, ash, and all three forms of sulfur, chlorine, and mercury. The feedstock’s BTU content, or energy density, increases by as much as 50% as moisture content is reduced.

 

The process itself is environmentally compliant. All byproducts are captured, filtered and separated, meeting the same Environmental Protection Agency standards as agricultural water for disposal into holding ponds.

 

*Proprietary process dries PRB Coal to consistent moisture and crushes to consistent size. This material is then briquetted to enhance its durability, prevent moisture saturation, and remove any rock or other foreign material.

Cotton Gin Trash Briquettes

Adding Value to Ag Residue

A new densification process turns cotton gin trash into cost-effective 2" briquettes that  can be used as a replacement for fossil fuels such as gas, oil, or coal. This effort was part of Cotton Inc.'s Biofuels  Initiative where research was targeted to identify opportunities to add value to the 2.5 M tons of gin trash from each season's cotton crop.

 

Research funded by Cotton Inc., conducted at the USDA-ARS Gin Lab in Lubbock, TX has demonstrated that briquetting is a more cost effective and easier to manage process than pelleting.

 

Densifying gin trash into briquettes delivers a BTU

output comparable to wood and/or corn-based pellets.

The BTUs can be increased to 9,000 per pound by

adding a small amount of crude cottonseed oil or

crude glycerin (a by-product of bio-diesel production).

Peanut Hull Pellets

Another exciting new ag residue fuel option

Peanut hull pellets, available to customers in a 5/16" diameter pellet, have been proven to be a very consistent and high BTU value fuel. Typical BTU values range from 7850 to 7950 BTUs per pound. Bulk density is equal to wood pellets, typically 40 pounds per cubic foot, with moisture at 5%. Ash content will be at 2.5% to 3.5%.

 

Combustion characteristics are very similar to wood pellets with the exception of the higher ash content and product flowability is excellent.

 

Pricing ranges between 30 - 40% less than bulk wood pellets making this a very economical choice.

A Promising New Fuel Option will Dramatically Save $

NCP110 - Proprietary Blend Bio-Fuel

We are working with bio-fuel blenders to supply a proprietary blend bio-fuel. This is a glycerin-based fuel with consistent flow and heating fuel properties that has proven to be very cost effective. It's use has already been proven with the AgSolutions Kagi Oil Burner.

We intend to be able to supply this fuel through distribution opportunities throughout most of the US. The pricing will include delivery.

Call us at 1-877-432-8488 to discuss your project and how we can lower

your heating costs.  

The money savings will be dramatic!
