GP: MANUFACTURES, ENERGY FROM RESIDUES (SUGAR BEET INDUSTRY)



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.

Best Regards,

Jesus Alonso
