Termal Teknolojiler Kullanılarak Biyokütle ile Enerji Üretimi

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine the conversion possibility of the agriculture and forestry wastes into clean energy as an alternative and renewable fuel in Turkey. For this reason, we will investigate the feasibility of plants/facilities that will enable the utilisation of agricultural waste and forestry wastes, which are available intensely in Turkey, as Energy Product, and propose construction of a plant. In this study, in order to determine the potential of renewable energy in agriculture and forestry waste for energy-producing sample will consist of a gasification plant syngas amount, calculating the cost of renewable energy potential and the system, focuses on the importance of renewable energy. Incentives provided by law to be installed plants and other renewable energy applications with gasification will return be much shorter periods determined by the analysis. After first observation of biomass characteristics with the optimum characteristics of a plant feasibility studies are discussed for the waste to energy process using biomass. Additionally, the economic analysis of different power capacity from 5 to 20 MWel using by fluidised bed gasification system with combined heat and power station will be set up for energy conversion of the residues Turkey was calculated and designed. The investment will become profitable at the economic analysis results were determined included feasibility studies, sensitivity analysis, net present value, internal rate of profitability, pay-back ratio, benefit/cost ratio, internal ratio etc. The cost of electricity produced from the power station by biomass gasification was calculated as quite reasonable for invesment at this moment in Turkey.
