Feasibility Study and Prototyping of a farm-scale Biomass Recovery & Transformation
FY 2024-25 · 2024-06-03
Summary
This project will see the construction of a pyrolysis plant for the transformation of underutilized forest biomass and agriculture waste through pyrolysis to biochar and pyroligneous acid for use primarily in the agriculture sector. Additionally, this project will investigate the opportunities of utilizing bio-products (bio-oil, syngas) for conversion and their potential use through a Combined Heat and Power (CHP) system. The primary outputs will provide the local agriculture market with sustainable solutions that will increase soil health, supporting overall crop production and reduction of CO2 emissions.

Description (French)
Ce projet prévoit la construction d’une usine de pyrolyse pour la transformation de la biomasse forestière sous-utilisée et des déchets agricoles par pyrolyse en biochar et en acide pyroligneux pour une utilisation principalement dans le secteur agricole. En outre, ce projet étudiera les possibilités d’utilisation des bioproduits (biohuile, gaz de synthèse) pour la conversion et leur utilisation potentielle par le biais d’un système de production combinée de chaleur et d’électricité (PCCE). Les principaux résultats fourniront au marché agricole local des solutions durables qui amélioreront la santé des sols, favoriseront la production agricole globale et réduiront les émissions de CO2.
