Lynx Wood Gasifier Boiler Part 2

admin — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 02:48:08 +0000

The boiler needed to be suspended because of the way the fan mounts. Making the whole unit look like a BB-Q makes it a bit more house friendly. Its also a good way to tidy up all the controls, steam engine, water reservoir into one accessible place. I sure learned that anymore than two pounds of wood is unnecessary. With four pounds and fan on high it looks like a Mig 15 afterburner. Next is the tedious fitting of the tubing, and controls, then more testing, refinements.

Pellet Furnace Ecole Evangeline

admin — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 02:48:03 +0000

Can we heat most of PEI by using wood? This video shows us that the technology and the savings are here to do that.

I interview Dick Arsenault who is the agent and installer for the KOB Biofuel Boiler at the Ecole Evangeline on PEI. You will see how easy this is to install, maintain and operate. We end with the costs that offer us a dramatic opportunity.

Here is part of the press release: A biomass heating system demonstation project at École Évangéline in Abram-Village is now operating, announced the Department of Environment, Energy and Forestry and la Commission scolaire de langue française.

The school will now be using a pellet-fuel furnace as its primary heat source, with an oil-heat system used only to supplement the pellet-fuel system. The school uses approximately 100,000 litres of fuel each year for heating, but expects that the addition of the system which burns pelletized wood will dramatically cut its annual bill.

The heating system installed is an Austrian-built 300 kilowatt Kob Pyrot pellet furnace, supplied by Atlantic Cool Air of Wellington. The unit arrives in a ready-for-installation container designed to be placed outside the school building and integrated into the heating system through pipes that connect to a heat exchanger.
