The systems are suited for greenhouses, schools, hospitals, sawmills, and more. They accept any type of fuel, and up to 60% moisture content. The systems feature hydraulic ram biomass feeders for trouble-free operation, double combustion chambers, automatic boiler tube cleaning and ash removal systems, and fully com-puterized controls with VFD. Low headroom space is required. The systems use bio -mass gasification technology for cleaner combustion gases, and have high overall efficiency due to the cleanness of the exchanger. The systems are compatible with any type of heat exchanger, including steam, hot water, thermal fluid, and hot air. kRANN ENGINEERING LIMITED www.krann.ca Tel: 604-538-8113 Krann of fers biomass boiler systems in the 1 to 10 MW range for both hot water and steam, heated by Krann gasification furnaces. Typically, no filters are needed for flue gas handling because of the low emission levels. These systems can be used to generate electrical power through either a steam turbine or an or-ganic Rankine cycle module. Fuels include hog fuel, shavings, recycled wood waste, and others, with up to 55% moisture content. Applications include saw -mills, greenhouses, dr ying facilities, municipal buildings, hospitals, and others. These turnkey systems are fully automated from fuel storage to exhaust and require minimal super vision. Krann also of fers the conversion of existing fossil fuel boilers to biomass. kMW ENERGy INC. www.kmwenergy.com Tel: 519-686-1771 KMW Energy Inc. of fers heat energy only or combined heat and power (CHP) plants complete with power generating equip-ment. Thermal-only systems range from 150 boiler hp (1.5 MW thermal) to over 4,000 boiler hp (40 MW thermal); CHP plants range from 1 to 25 MW electric. Heating mediums can be hot air, high-or low -pressure steam, hot water, or thermal oil. Furnaces are reciprocating grate-type; the grate cycling pattern achieves a high degree of gasified-combustion efficiency, resulting in minimal stack emissions. The boilers are typically custom-designed and built to specifica -tions to ensure trouble-free operation. The systems accept a wide variety of solid fuels, including sawdust, bark, wood chips, agricultural waste, rice husks, sewage and mill sludge, RDF, and construction debris. KMW supplies the greenhouse, forestr y, and wood products industries, as well as the municipal waste-to-energy and bio-solids sectors. It has completed more than 100 biomass energy projects in Canada, USA, Mexico, Chile, and Australia. MESSERSMITh MANUFACTURING, INC. www.burnchips.com Tel: 906-466-9010 Messersmith Manufacturing provides de-sign, fabrication, installation, and startup of biomass boiler systems with thermal outputs ranging from 600 kW to 6 MW. The systems can use fire-tube or water-tube boilers, providing hot water or high-pressure steam for electricity generation. A fixed, sloping grate system combines with preheated combustion air to provide clean, efficient combustion with less than Canadian BIOMASS 27
