Biomass Combustion Products

Basics

• Also known as coal combustion by(-)products or coal combustion residuals / waste
• Essentially all the lefttover material once Biomass is burned
  • Can also include Charcoal and Pyrolysis / Gasification as this is "Staged Combustion" (Also this term gets the most google search results, so should "work" the best)
• This also often includes the Fly Ash , and sometimes material from Flue Gas Desulferization
• Due to the lack of (significant ammounts of (short of maybe plats consuming tons of material) ) Mercury and other Heavy Metals the main issues associated with Coal Combustion Products are removed
  • This also makes processing the ash into Potassium Hydroxide or other chemicals easier due to less impuritires
• Need to get specific data (Some similar data may be in the Bio-Crude page)

Internal Links

• Bio-Tar / Creosote (Usually more intentional, and requiring a special reactor design, but could be "recovered waste" in some cases)
• Clinkers
• Fly Ash
• Slag
• Gypsum / Gypsum Board (seems it is only Drywall for now? Need to check in on this)
