Fuel feding and gasification Fuel is fed from the silo or larger biomass storage by screw and chain conveyors Rotating feeder prevents from free air flow to the reactor. It also protects from back fire Fuel is fed from the silo by screw and chain conveyors
Gas cooling and filtering 1. Cooling before the filtering phase (heat recovering) 2. Dry filtering system ( 3. Washing the gas (for dust particles) 4. Cooling to the final product gas temperature (heat recovering) 5. Cooled and filtered gas to the motor

I have done gasification research and development at VTT since 1981, Volter s gasifier is the first ideal working downdraft gasifier that I have come across. Congratulations! Esa Kurkela, Development manager at VTT Gasification and Gas Cleaning Technologies
