Procurement and handling of biofuel for a combined heat and power plant at Skoevde; Raavarubalans och logistik foer kraftvaermeverk i Skoevde

Abstract

A strategic analysis is made of the supply and suitable forms of delivery of biofuel to a plant located at Skoevde. The study is based on costs and not on market prices. The fuels considered are logging residues from final harvests, salix, sawmill residues and wood from young hardwood stands. The procurement area is restricted to a zone ranging about 70 km from Skoevde. The total supply encompasses 577,000 MWh per year. Logging residues contributes with 298,000, salix with 77,000, sawmill residues with 173,000 and hardwood with 29,000. The total energy requirement of the plant amounts to 378,000 MWh. There is only one delivery system available for salix, sawmill residues and hardwood. For logging residues, the most important raw material, there are several optional delivery systems. Logging residues is forwarded to the landing where it is stacked. Comminution takes place at the landing with mobile equipment or at the plant with stationary or mobile equipment. Unprocessed material can be stored for a shorter or longer period at the landing. The results of the analysis indicate: that the supply of biofuel is sufficient within the given area. Logging- and sawmill residues constitute the bulk of the supply; that stationary equipment for  More>>

Unprocessed material can be stored for a shorter or longer period at the landing. The results of the analysis indicate: that the supply of biofuel is sufficient within the given area. Logging- and sawmill residues constitute the bulk of the supply; that stationary equipment for comminution at the plant is profitable. The total cost is reduced with about 1 MSEK a year, or 3 SEK per MWh, if such capacity is installed. In the base line scenario a total of 223,000 m{sup 3} is processed with the stationary equipment. This volume warrants annual capital costs of some 4.1 MSEK, which can be compared with the calculated 3.0 MSEK with stationary equipment. The total cost per MWh is 92 SEK and increases to 95 SEK if the capacity is not available. The results of the study is based on quantitative estimates of costs. A number of other factors, such as consequences on traffic and environment, have only been briefly discussed. (2 refs., 9 figs.).}
