6 Foil 6, 11/2014 Viessmann Manufacturing System Design Main components BOILER ROOM FUEL (BUNKER) STORAGE ROOM BOILER CONVEYOR AUGER(S) FUEL EXTRACTION SYSTEM

7 Foil 7, 11/2014 Viessmann Manufacturing Hydronic heating design Piping Boiler pump & mixing valve Thermal storage tank Biomass boiler Back-up boiler System pump

8 Foil 8, 11/2014 Viessmann Manufacturing System Design Boiler Efficient: modern biomass boilers have high conversion efficiency (85% - HHV). Clean: modern boiler technology has very low particulate, NOx and CO emissions. Economical: cost effective today, short payback versus Oil, LPG and Electricity. Sustainable: CO2 neutral, regionally abundant, compliments sustainable forestry. Rotary Combustion Boiler 500 MBH to 1,800 MBH (150kW- 540kW) For dry wood fuels with a water content < 35%. Underfeed Combustion Boiler 1,300 MBH to 4,300 MBH (390 to 1250 kw) For wood fuels with a water content < 50%

9 Foil 9, 11/2014 Viessmann Manufacturing Emissions Filtration systems Flue gas cyclone Filters out large particles. Captures sparks. Typically used on larger woodchip boilers. Does not take out the small particles.

10 Foil 10, 11/2014 Viessmann Manufacturing Looking forward Plans for 2017 Operating biomass showroom Vitoflex 300-UF 390 kw (1331 MBH) wood biomass boiler Annual natural gas consumption is around 56,000 m³ System replacement will reduce 108 tons of CO2 emissions per year 5.1 CO2 Metric Tons/Year comparison 41.8 acres of trees for sequestration average car annual CO2 emission= 5.1 t An acre of mature trees can capture 2.6 tons of CO2 per year or 130 tons of CO2 in 50 years period. Tree planning projects have average 450 trees per acre. One tree can capture pounds of CO2 per year. Canada produces 890,000,000 tons of CO2 per year. CO2-equivalent emissions figures from public sources. The figures are for illustrative purposes only and haven't been verified by Viessmann.
