Description
Overall the findings of the project indicate the technologies that exist on a larger scale pose several challenges on a smaller scale. Technical challenges include finding equipment that has a small capacity while still maintaining the efficiencies of a large scale plant. In addition, financial challenges arose from the initial cost analysis. The findings indicate the cost of torrefied biomass is well above the going market price for energy on a BTU/lb...

Description
The purpose of this project is to identify a method to cost-effectively utilize manure and other abundant agricultural wastes to produce useful energy. A fuel made from this resource has the potential to reduce farmers' waste disposal and energy expenses, mitigate negative environmental impacts caused by excessive and inappropriately stored manure, and improve the economic viability of farm operations. This research project designed, produced and...
