<strong>Micro</strong>-<strong><strong>gas</strong>ification</strong>: <strong>Cooking</strong> <strong>with</strong> <strong>gas</strong> <strong>from</strong> dry <strong>biomass</strong><br />

Guiding tool to identify appropriate <strong>biomass</strong> densification options<br />

Developed by Christa Roth<br />

Low-pressure moulding by hand or low-cost light levers require a wet preparation of the<br />

feedstock and drying space after production. It might yield enough output for single household<br />

consumption or a family-business. Economies-of-scale <strong>with</strong> outputs of densified product<br />

above 1,000 kg/h require capital-intensive machinery and tri-phase electricity supply<br />

above 20 KvA, which might be limiting factors in certain locations. Some examples of options<br />

are presented in the following paragraphs. 24<br />
