  4. -4 Biosphere Gasifier Rendering '4 F r o n t E n d R e c y c lin g • We tend to prefer projects which remove recyclable materials, and non recyclable materials . • We can't gasify stone and glass, and we should recycle aluminum cans, etc. 4

  5. • Transfer to Waste Processing can be direct or by trans shipment . • Baling systems can produce wrapped waste with NO odor and NO negative image. 5

  6. -4 V is u a lly n e u tr a l. • Bales weigh approximately 3,500 pounds each. I • • Compressed approximately 14:1 ratio. • Can be stacked deeply, and held in high temperatures without problems l. ;;K , R e fu s e D e r iv e d F u e l • Municipal solid waste (MSW) is processed into Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) in a MRF - i.e., in a Material Recycling Facility • The RDF can be gasified in an Biosphere Gasifier • The RDF can also be mixed with 82% moisture content "belt pressed" Municipal sewage sludge and gasified in an Biosphere Gasifier 6

  9. Firing lime kiln Proven Commercial ~ Performance • Two units (45,000,000 Btu x 2) have been running continuously for 27 years. • The machine has lasted longer than most of the ten forestry product companies who installed units. • Reliable, robust, solid and proven fluidized bed updraft gasification that can project finance. 9

  11. -4 - F ir in g i o f S te a m T u r b in e • Biomass is gasified in separate units built alongside of steam turbine. • Gasifiers 2,OOO°F ± 200°F products of combustion are ducted to Heat Exchangers which drive steam into the Turbine. • Products of combustion from Heat Exchanger goes into our special bag houses. • B io m a s s m o is tu re c o n te n t U D to 6 5 % is "OK" fa, ou' aasifiers. ~ -4 S ig n ific a n t F e a tu r e s , 1 • Four air sources: • Underfire air gasifies biomass in the pi stage • Overfire air preheats 1'1 stage producer gas to ensure ignition in the 2 nd stage • Primary combustion air ignites the preheated producer gas at the bottom of the 2 nd stage • Secondary combustion air completes combustion of producer gas in the 2 nd stage 11

  12. '4 Significant Featnres, 2 ~ • Very large pt stage grate area • Hence grate temperature :5:1,200°F • Hence essentially zero slag • Ash can be reclaimed as valuable products • Very low underfire air flow • (only need sufficient air to gasify biomass) • Hence very low particulate elutriation off pile Significant Featnres, 3 In ~ • The Biosphere Gasifier can burn biomass with moisture contents up to 65% (wet basis) and ash contents up to 35% • 5:1 turndown ratio is standard: 9:1 is not uncommon • 15 second reSDonse time to steD chanae in Btu Demand sianal • Abort valve permits rapid dumping of products of combustion in an emergency 12

  16. KYOTO PROTOCOL TO THE UNITED -4 NATIONS FRAMEWORK CONVENTION; CLIMATE CHANGE • Reducing the greenhouse gas effects of the combustion of fossil fuels is exactly the value produced by a biomass and refuse derived fuel based power plant . • ZERO "new" C02 production cycle. -- I '4 Biosphere Gasifier 1 st Stage: gentle • updraft gasification on very large grate 2 nd Stage: vigorous, • double vortex, cydonic combustion CO < 1 DDm. NO x < 15 • Emissions (untreated): < 100 ma/Nm 3 DDm. Darticulate (< 0.125 Ib/l0 6 Btu: < 0.04 ar/dscfl • Emissions listed are Drior to treatment. Bag House @ PM2.5 and Wet Tubular Electrostatic Precipitators are planned for projects. • Units in continuous operation for 25+ years 16

  17. 4Significant Features, 4 • Staged combustion permits operating with excess air levels as low as 15% • The lime kiln test unit burned 55 % moisture content hog fuel and supplied 2,200°F flue gas to the kiln @ e = 15% • Stal!:edcombustion and low temperatures (due to wet fuels) combine to produce virtuallv zero thermal NOx I I!,..... • .....•.• 4 Significant Features,S • Dioxins and Furans Destroyed, viz., • Chlorine can react with cellulose to form dioxins and furans in the 1<1 stage • However, these gases are destroyed in the 2 nd stage with its 1,800°F plus brick walls • No black waterwalls are present to chilI • and lock in - dioxins or furans in the 2 nd stage 17

  18. M.A.C.T . ~ Dioxins & Furans • M.A.C.T. is maximum available control technology. (Also sometimes known as B.A.C.T. or Best Available Control Technology) • • While we should not have any issue with this on our gasification, we include special bag houses that would automatically catch any dioxins or furans at 40% below the current A7 Ontario Standards.
