a) A photovoltaic solar module is a set of electrically connected solar cells. Quite often, single solar cells do not produce enough electrical power. Therefore many PV cells are combined in so called photovoltaic solar modules and wheatherproof mounted between glass plates. This assembly can be done either automatically or manually. The manufacturing process consists of several steps such as…
A beehive briquette is a solid fuel made out of char obtained from the carbonization of biomass residues. It is used as a substitute for fuel wood or kerosene for cooking or space heating. The technology of making beehive briquettes involves partial carbonization of biomass wastes, mixing of char with binders followed by briquetting. For making the beehive shaped briquette from the char clay…
Bioethanol is one of the energy alternative sources which can replace fossil fuel as biofuel. The utilization of bioethanol in the biofuel is mixing a number of gasoline to the bioethanol with the certain ratio. This process is known as biogasoline / gasohol. Bioethanol is produced from biomass raw material with enzymatic and fermentation reaction. Bioethanol production from the first generation…
Biogas is the mixture of gas produced by methanogenic bacteria while acting upon bio degradable materials in an anaerobic condition. It is mainly composed of 50 to 70 percent methane, 30 to 40 percent carbon dioxide, and some other gases. It is about 20 percent lighter than air. It is an odourless gas that burns with clear blue flame similar to that of LPG gas. Biogas production process involves…
Biogas : Any organic material when subject to anaerobic fermentation (in absence of oxygen), produces combustible gas called “biogas”. Biogas can be produced from any organic matter - animal dung, sewage, kitchen wastes, human excreta etc. from any biodegradable items. It contains methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2) with other composition of gases as per the following, Methane (CH4) – 50-70…
The Biogas Technology (BT) offers an efficient way of biomass utilization. It involves anaerobic fermentation of organic materials such as animal dung, agricultural wastes, aquatic weeds etc. to produce a methane rich fuel gas and a value added organic fertilizer. Thus, it has considerable potential for providing fuel and fertilizer besides being a system for waste recycling, prevention of…
Industrial bakery oven which use saw dust or paddy husk as fuel is another quality product developed by the National Engineering Research & Development Centre. It provides an effective method of baking bread and other flour based products and can be used in a small bakery. The effective use of rice husk or saw dust reduces the energy cost of baking bread by 75% compared to the conventional…
Biomass gasification and power generation technology is a kind of biomass energy utilization technology that converts biomass materials by gasifier into combustible fuel gas, such as CO, H2, CH4, and after being purified the fuel gas is sent to internal combustion engine for power generation. The technology can be used where biomass materials are abundant, such as stalk, chaff, peanut shell, wood…
It is a proven Renewable Energy Technology used for cooking, agro-products processing. Chemical energy of fuel wood is turned into heat energy by burning it. All the geographical locations where renewable biomass is available. A trained technician teaches user for operation and maintenance during installation.
Biomass moulding fuel (BMF) technology can transfer agricultural and forestry processing refuse into certain shape and higher density fuel in certain temperature and pressure effect.
