Abstract
Vattenfall AB established in 1989 a project on the utilization of bioenergy. A major task of the project is to develop and demonstrate new power generation techniques.
Feasibility studies were carried out comparing several candidate technologies. The studies identified pressurized gasification based combined cycle as the most promising technology. A demonstration plant is planned for the city of Eskilstuna in Sweden. Start-up is scheduled for 1996.
The demonstration plant heat input will be 140 MW and the output 60 MW power and 65 MW of hot water for district heating. The net efficiency of power penetration will be above 40%.
Prior to the final design of the system a development program will be carried out in pilot and laboratory scale.
