New consideration is being given to the potential utilization of surplus forest biomass as a clean and renewable alternative to fossil fuels for the generation of energy. A number of recent studies have examined the potential for the utilization of otherwise non-merchantable round wood and forest harvest residuals as feed stock for energy conversion plants... In addition to non-merchantable materials resulting from harvest activities, other sources of woody biomass could include stems taken from pre-commercial thinning in young forests and by-product residuals from forest product manufacturing operations such as shavings and saw dust. 2, record 3, English, - surplus%20forest%20biomass

For the purposes of [the] study, a packaged boiler will be a shop-assembled unit shipped on skids completely ready to connect and operate. Units larger than 30, 000 lb. per hr. of steam will not be considered. Packaged boilers have long been fabricated for use with fossil fuels. More recently units have been developed for firing on various types of wood waste. 5, record 14, English, - packaged%20boiler

Les chaudières préfabriquées sont celles dont la disposition, les dimensions, et l'absence de réfractaires maçonnés, permettent, après les avoir construites, montées et éprouvées en ateliers, de les transporter complètement terminées. Il est bien évident que des sujétions de transport (...) limitent certaines dimensions et, par suite, la puissance évaporatoire des divers types de chaudières qu'il est possible de livrer entièrement finies. 2, record 14, French, - chaudi%C3%A8re%20pr%C3%A9fabriqu%C3%A9e

Low energy gas(LEG) is produced by air gasification processes where a portion of the input wood(about 20 percent) is combusted with air to provide process heat. LEG can be used to displace fossil fuels by retrofitting oil or gas-fired boilers, kilns, dryers and space heaters. In addition, it can be cooled and cleaned for use in internal combustion engines to generate shaft power or electricity. Due to the low energy content, economics dictate that the gas be used immediately and not piped great distances. 1, record 15, English, - low%20energy%20gas

The water cooled cyclonic burner fired with crushed coal on oil may be adapted to firing hog [fuel] in combination with fossil fuels. The all refractory cyclonic burner limited to firing dry pulverized wood waste has been wed as the heat source for dry kilns and rotary dryers but has yet to be demonstrated firing directly into a boiler. 1, record 16, English, - cyclonic%20burner
