1.- What is biomass?
Biomass as RAE, is the organic matter originated in a biological process, spontaneous or induced, can be used as an energy source.
The formation of living matter or biomass from sunlight is done by a process called photosynthesis by which large molecules are produced in high energy (chemical energy), whose storage cost is zero, and principle, no losses.
The set of terrestrial and aquatic plants, waste or byproducts from the processing of such plants or by animals that feed on them or by the technological processes of food industries.
Biomass Potential in Spain
Given its availability is the largest renewable source of potential in Spain, 28'9 quantified resources in Mtoe. (Million tonnes oil equivalent), equivalent to an amount greater than all the energy consumption of Spanish industry.
2.- Is there cost savings?
If we compare a conventional (diesel for example) versus an installation with a biomass boiler, first note that the team biomass is larger than we want to replace what we will need more space, we also need space for biomass also the initial investment is higher, so a priori we have to do initial economic effort, or to welcome the financial support formulas that some companies offer, and then look at the low price of biomass compared to the rest, thanks to which We can amortize the new facility soon, after which the savings for the user can even reach values of 60%.
3.- Is it possible to replace gas boilers, coal or diesel fuel with a biomass?
The conventional devices for generating heat, such as gas or oil boilers can be replaced by biomass boilers, since the purpose of these teams is the same heat output for transmission to circulate water through the installation finally radiators, batteries, hot water, etc.
4.- Is it safe biomass boilers?
Most boilers if they meet the new RITE have safety devices such as: over-temperature thermostat systems, flashback, flooding hopper system, sensors closure on top of the hopper, mechanical clutch, Worm Protection If reversing auger jam. Energy Sierra Segura fully comply with the regulations in force in all our facilities, thanks to work with equipment approved to meet all the requirements that the current legislation requires. In all our facilities that require, among many other services including the legalization of the facilities, the technical project dearrollando signed and stamped by a competent technician.
5.- Can I automate a stove or furnace?
The use of biofuels ensures technological advantages due to its small size easily passes from the tank to fire, allowing an automatic feeding and a large autonomy. Using digital control technology, we have a large amount of data that inform us about the condition and operation of our system, besides being able to operate at a distance.
BY REMOTE: You can manage your boiler tele-phone and your modem (optional). Also if the boiler had a glitch that would send an SMS to the maintenance company and likewise the boiler can be fully managed by a PC for quick and easy service.
6.- Who can make the installation of the boiler?
Biomass boilers in constructive important differences with respect to other such as oil or gas, since although the purpose is the same, heat production, the way we produce, requires the installation of accessory items in the installation that require technical knowledge, it is recommended that the installer is trained to work with teams of biomass, and preferably having specific knowledge of the boiler assembly object.
7.- What is the maintenance of the facility?
When performing an installation of biomass, there are several elements that could control and verification, as with the other facilities, there are models of services that include all management and maintenance operations. However in relation to the boiler equipment on the market are fully automated, reducing maintenance to a minimum, this being the removal of ash (by volume frequency of the ashtray), and verification of other elements by qualified personnel.
8.- Are there smells of burning or explosion hazard?
When we are using a biomass of quality, not odor, plus the smoke from the chimney is colorless, so besides being a renewable heat, heat is clean. Given the high efficiency of equipment and thanks to its advanced technology, you get yields up to 95% so the smoke, apart from not produce odors, generated in very small quantities. Unlike other traditional fossil fuels, from the standpoint of safety from explosions, biomass is not hazardous.
9.- How do you know how much biomass do I need?
To easily calculate the amount of biomass that we need for our installation, we must look at the calorific value of fuel and biofuel, in practical terms and to simplify the calculation, we estimate that a gallon of diesel is approximately 2.2 kg biomass (in this case olive pits).
10.- Where I can get biomass, what kind?
A wide variety of manufacturers and biomass in both the country and internationally, which ensures the supply. Within solid biofuels which are produced can be used in boilers policombustibles, although the teams have a good performance, biomass use must meet certain parameters of quality assurance. Some of these parameters to be observed, depending on the biomass is used, must be the PCI (calorific value), moisture, ash, homogeneity in each game and a little more detail, the waste generated in the combustion of biomass, because there are certain components that can damage equipment over the medium to long term, reducing the life of the boiler and reducing the profitability of the system. Therefore we must go to biofuels that will ensure their quality for combustion and therefore the proper functioning of equipment, we can achieve this easily, since currently there are companies in the market that offer turnkey projects, which ensure good operation of the assembly, achieving integration of all system elements. If you prefer to purchase items on our own, it is important to inform or seek advice of professionals to choose the product that best suits your needs. Energy Sierra Segura, we ensure the quality of our biomass, olive pits, as producers still control the biofuel from the origin, the farmer, and we closely monitored in each process, and we are implementing a traceability system must It helps us to identify and classify items for processing biomass, and allows us to distinguish between different lots and the final product quality, achieving different categories biomass adapted to demand. Therefore the quality and supply are secured from the producer, which contributes to cost savings for the end customer as it does without intermediaries.
11.- Biomass Expires?
To maintain the values of quality required for combustion, a very important section to consider is the storage silo, as it must be sealed, isolating the product from moisture, otherwise the biomass can be stored without losing properties for use.
12.- Are there any grants or subsidies for biomass installations?
Almost all the autonomous communities are helplines biomass, which are offered annually, these lines are from 30% to 52% in some cases. Energía Sierra Segura, we deal with the management of aid, and if you work on a financing of equipment, support a direct impact on the depreciation of equipment in full.
THE IDEA BIOMCASA line
Is a line of total funding for biomass projects, turnkey. The customer signs a contract for energy services, all inclusive, for a period between 8 and 10, where the customer saves a minimum of 10%, guaranteed contract, with respect to traditional fuel it replaces, and disregards everything else, both the assembly and installation of new equipment, supply of biomass, and the operation and maintenance of equipment.
