>We are looking for commercial manufacturers of boilers for burning 
>residues from sugar beet industry. The residue comes from the preparation 
>of the sugar and its characteristics are as follows:
>
>LHV: 8374-9211 KJ/Kg
>
>Water Content: 35% wt
>
>Composition:
>
>Organic Matter: 65-72%
>
>Proteins: 30%
>
>Ashes: 28%
>
>K: 7,3%
>
>Na: 3,7%
>
>Ca: 0,45%
>
>Mg: 0,15%
>
>We would need a manufacturer (able to supply its products in Spain) with 
>commercial references of burning this type of product (with guarantees).
>
>Regarding the amount of residue, we would need two options:
>
>Option 1: 40000 tonnes/year
>
>Option 2: 120000 tonnes/year
>
>(Between 2,5-7,5 MWe approx.)
>
>Furthermore we would analyse the possibility of implementing (instead of a 
>"classic steam boiler") a gasification power plant. So if there are any 
>company with a COMMERCIAL GASIFICATION TECHONLOGY OF THIS RESIDUE, it 
>would be analysed.
>
>Our intention is to produce electricity. Otherwise, if it is not possible, 
>we will go to eliminate the residue by incineration without production of 
>electricity.
>
>Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
