OUR TECHNOLOGY
COGENERATION
Technological process of energy generation, where heat and electricity are produced simultaneously, ensuring maximum energy efficiency.
WOOD GASIFICATION
Technology that converts biomass (wood chips) into wood gas. The obtained wood gas is used in the production of electricity and heat, as well as other valuable products, such as chemicals, fuels, and fertilizers
FORTES installs power plants integrating full cycle of technologies – storage, drying and supply of wood chips, wood gasification, and cogeneration where heat and electricity are produced.
SUSTAINABLE RENEWABLE ENERGY
Forest residues are used to produce wood-gas that is transformed into green electricity and heat
TECHNOLOGICAL PROCESS
For better understanding below layout with four CHP units with full technological process:
1 - Wood-chip discharge
2 - Wood-chip dryer
3 - Sieve
4 - Bunkers (24h reserve)
5 - Gasifiers
6 - CHP units
FORTES gasifiers are reaching electrical efficiency up to 30% and with fuel utilisation rate up to 90%. The capacity of one such system is up to 140 kWel and heat up to 280 kWth. Energy-producing systems are additionally equipped with wood gas filtration and cooling systems, ash removal, and emergency cooling systems.
We apply an innovative wood gas purification system, which cleans the gas with the hot gas filter and gasifies the fine particles of charcoal in the gas filter. This process ensures the most efficient use of biomass, and the plant operates without tar residues.
Our system is modular and can be used both for small project and also larger plants with electrical power up to 2000kWel and heat up to 4000kWth.
