Abstract

Amongst the thermochemical conversion technologies of biomass fuels, combustion is the only proven technology for heat and power production available for installations in the range of a few kilowatts to more than 100 MW due to its high-level technical maturity, considerable heat production efficiency and essential economic feasibility (Nussbaumer 2003). For example, the energy output/input ratios for corn combustion can reach 6.5 to 7.7, which is superior to the value for making ethanol from corn (Duxbury 2006).
