HEAT, STEAM AND ELECTRICITY FROM BIOGENIC RESIDUES

Biogenic residues and wastes are frequently generated in the course of many industrial processes. At the same time, industrial production processes often require steam, heat or electricity in a defined quality and amount. An economical and ecologically sound solution would be to put the biogenic waste materials to use as fuel for the energy requirements of the production processes that generate the biogenic waste in the first place, and to use any excess to feed into the district heating grid or the public electricity grid.

SUSTAINABLE TECHNOLOGY FROM 1 TO 50 MWth

LAMBION biomass plants produce heat, steam and electricity from biogenic waste and residue coming directly from production processes. The key know-how of the LAMBION technology is a range of specially developed combustion processes. The special benefit of this technology is that biofuels of varying chemical and physical composition – whether dry or wet, coarse or fine – can be burned together at the same time and converted into useful energy.

ENERGY FROM BIOMASSE

The LAMBION Energy Solutions GmbH is a family-owned, mid-sized manufacturer of heating plants, power plants and combined heat and power plants (CHP) 1 to 50 MWth for solid fuels and biogenic waste materials. For more than 90 years Lambion has been a leader in combustion technology. Today the company delivers turnkey biomass plant technology, including full planning and financing services if desired.

THE PERCENTAGE OF ENERGY COMING FROM BIOMASS CAN BE TRIPLED BY 2050

ADVANTAGES OF ENERGY PRODUCTION FROM BIOGENIC RESIDUES

▶ Renewable energy source▶ Strengthens local value creation▶ Available on a long-term basis: storable & demand-based▶ Independent from energy imports▶ Diverse applications: Electricity, heat, steam▶ Low electricity and heat generation costs in comparison to rising fossil energy costs

NOBILIA WERKEJ. STICKLING GMBH & CO. KG

PROJECT CHALLENGE

For decades, Nobilia as Germany’s largest kitchen furniture producer has found ways to avoid the use of fossil fuels for the heating of the entire company. The expansion of its production capacities together with the modernization of an existing Lambion biomass heating plant after 30 years of operation called for a new energy concept for the Nobilia production facilities.

PROJECT RESULT

Together with Nobilia, feasibility studies for a heating solution as well as a combined heat and power plant were conducted taking into account both economic and ecological aspects.

Finally, two identical heating plants were realized which heat the extensive Nobilia production facilities. The fuel for these plants comes exclusively from the production scrap generated in the course of the company’s own manufacturing activities.

PROJECT CHALLENGE

The Scheyern Benedictine Abbey “Zum Heiligen Kreuz” operates various businesses to support the institution (a monastery restaurant, shop, brewery, hotel and nursery) and also manages its own forested lands. As an ecologically and economically responsible entity, the Abbey was committed to the use of renewable energy sources.

PROJECT RESULT

The Abbey now operates a combined heat and power (CHP) biomass plant. The plant makes use of timber and wood scrap coming from the Abbey’s forestry operations. A district heating network for the Abbey’s own holdings was constructed which now supplies the diverse premises with heat as well as providing the nursery and brewery with required process heat. This allows the Abbey to help protect the environment while at the same time creating a sustainable economic basis for the Abbey itself.
