The article presents a solution for solving the problems of eco-efficient combustion of pelletized or chopped and dried agricultural and forest residual biomass, using the TopLit UpDraft (TLUD) gasification process. By using this solution, thermal energy is produced, and about 10-20% residual charcoal, not transformed into gas, called biochar, too. Biochar is a good amendment for agricultural soils and reduces the concentration of CO2 in the environment by capturing carbon in the soil for long periods. Biochar act...

This article presents the results, obtained from testing an equipment used to obtain biogas and biochar from biomass, developed and manufactured based on a patent developed on a research and development project by the IHP staff. A modern way in order to produce ecological and cheap thermal energy is to utilize biomass through micro-gasification process called TLUD (Top-Lit UpDraft) with high conversion efficiencies and emissions of CO and low PM2,5. A new way for producing energy from biomass is the CHAB concept (...
