Outline • Market conditions and outlook for biomass in ASEAN • Barriers and possible solutions
EC-ASEAN COGEN Programme An economic cooperation programme: European Commission (EC) & Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) • Funded by the EC (25 M €) • Implementation: January 2002 – December 2004 • Coordinated by Asian Institute of Technology (AIT) & SYCON-Carl Bro • 3rd Phase (COGEN 3) • Objectives: • Increase the use of cogeneration in ASEAN • Promote the use of proven, clean and efficient European cogeneration technology • Create business opportunities for cogeneration within the ASEAN industrial sectors using biomass, coal and gas as fuels
Biomass fuels Available in ASEAN Rice husk, Wood residues Rice husk, Sugar bagasse, Palm oil, Pulp and paper Rice husk, Sugar bagasse, Pulp and paper, Wood residues Rice husk, Wood residues n.a. Rice husk, Sugar bagasse, Palm oil, Pulp and paper, Wood residues Rice husk,Palm oil, Wood residues n.a. Rice husk, Sugar bagasse, Palm oil, Pulp and paper, Wood residues
Sugar mills • Energy situation • Old cogeneration plants (20 to 50 years) with low pressure boilers and less efficient turbines • Not possible to sell electricity in the past • Seasonal operation using only bagasse • Emerging trend • Need to replace old cogeneration system • Good potential for high pressure boilers and efficient turbines • Excess power exported to grid • Use of multi-fuel boilers and plant operation throughout the year • Already few sugar mills started implementing efficient cogeneration
Sugar industries: Fuel availability and cogeneration potential Bagasse = Sugar cane * 0.29; 1 kWh = 3 kg of bagasse (including steam for process)
Rice mills • Energy situation • Only few plants implemented so far • Revenue from ash sales • Rice husk plants are also fired with wood waste and bagasse • Dumping or open burning is common • Emerging trend • Good potential for high pressure boilers and efficient turbines • Excess power exported to grid • Separate isolated plants generating only power is also popular
Rice industries: Fuel availability and cogeneration potential Rice husk = Paddy * 0.22; 1 kWh = 1.5 kg of rice husk (including steam for process)
Rice husk plant in Thailand 2.5 MW Steam turbine Boiler: Capacity 17 tph, 35 bar, 420 oC In operation since 1997 COGEN phase 2 Full Scale Demonstration Project Steam used for drying of rice paddy Ash sold to steel industries (export)
Palm oil mills • Energy situation • Old cogeneration plants (20 to 50 years) with low pressure boilers and less efficient turbines • Not possible to sell electricity in the past • Seasonal operation using only fibre and shell • Emerging trend • Need to replace old cogeneration system • Good potential for high pressure boilers and efficient turbines • Excess power exported to grid • Use of empty fruit bunches, fibre and shell • Plant operation throughout the year • Already few palm oil mills started implementing efficient cogeneration systems
Palm oil industries: Fuel availability and cogeneration potential Residue = Fresh Fruit Bunch * 0.42; 1 kWh = 2.5 kg of residues (including steam for process)
Wood industries • Energy situation • Inefficient boilers for heat requirements • Very few power/cogeneration plants implemented • Bark and other wood processing wastes are more common • Saw mills and ply mills generate large amount of waste (up to 50%) • Emerging trend • Good potential for high pressure boilers and efficient extraction condensing turbines • Used together with rice husk, sugar bagasse and coal • Excess power exported to grid • Plant operation throughout the year
Wood complex in Malaysia • 1.5 MW steam turbine • Condensing 900 kW • Back pressure 600 kW • Boiler: Capacity 16 tph, 22 bar, 280oC • In operation since 1995 • COGEN phase 2 Full Scale Demonstration Project • Steam is used for timber drying • -
Barriers • Technical • Human • Information • Organisation
