First Fire!

On Wednesday 22 June we had a great day and succeeded in achieving first fire in our combustion rig at our facilities in Stockholm.

The combustion rig is part of our integrated gasification and combustion rig for atmospheric integrated tests that we have been building the past year. In this rig, we will be able to test both gasified biomass of different kinds (bio-syngases), but also Hydrogen. For the first fire, we used LPG. The complete rig, which we amicably call Scarlett, will be providing significant operational experiences in integrated operation of gasification, gas clean-up, steam injection and combustion. We will also be measuring contents of the syngases produced and post-combustion emissions.

As we now have succeeded in first fire of the combustion rig, our attention now turns to the gasifier. Looking forward to seeing it operate.
