The Northeast Directory of Biomass Facilities

Technical Report · Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 EST 1987

OSTI ID:5586505

The Northeast Directory of Biomass Facilities is a comprehensive list of industries, businesses, institutions and utility companies located throughout the Northeast that use wood and wood wastes for fuel. Facilities included in the directory were identified through extensive research on wood energy use in the eleven-state region including Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Delaware. The Northeast Directory of Biomass Facilities is designed for public and private decisionmakers interested in evaluating the use of woodfuels at their facilities. The directory provides the name, location, contact person, and general information on approximately 400 industries, businesses and utility companies using wood for energy in 1986. In addition, more extensive information is provided on the design, engineering, maintenance and economics of about 200 wood-fired facilities that provided more detailed descriptions of their operations. The major emphasis of the director is wood-fired facilities larger than 3 million BTU's per hour that burn wood and wood wastes in heating systems or power plants that include automatic or semi-automatic woodfuel handling and processing equipment. Selected smaller representative facilities also listed. The director includes some information on hand-fed chunkwood heating systems that are increasingly being used in small businesses, municipal buildings, garages and other facilities. Please note that there are no facilities listed for Delaware and Rhode Island because there were no large facilities in operation at the time of publication.
