Biomass Gas

The Biomass CHP consist of a gasifier/reactor unit and a Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plant. Biomass CHP units are in operation around the world and produce large amounts of electricity and heat for companies, farms and resorts. The average running time Biomass CHP units operate over 8,000 hours per year. Many of plants have an annual running time of over 8,500 hours, which results in plant availability from 98 percent. Our high up time is possible by the power technology, a precise production and the continuous drive to develop this technology further. The most recent innovation is the new design of the reformer section of the system. Together with the highly reliable microturbine, it will supply a superior system and result with exceptional performance by a special pyrolysis process. The structure of the reformer offers high fuel feed in flexibility. Using a compact fire bed with temperature monitoring, the system guarantees a regulated gas production that ensures the efficiency of the Biomass CHP.

Omni Biomass Gasification System 1 Megawatt of Syngas Output from Biomass input.

The produced gas is cooled by the heat exchanger and passes through a gas filter with integrated self-cleaning.

The syngas engine burns the gas and converts the energy of the forest wood waste or agricultural waste gas into kinetic energy. A powerful generator transforms the rotation into electricity. In addition the CHP produces heat, which makes the whole process highly efficient.

Omni BioEnergy LLC is our partner in the deployment of the system.

Omni has brought this exciting technology to WEC and is now developing Biomass CHP’s projects globally. Our projects are focused on the Ag and Forest waste California market now and moving into the Morocco market soon.


We are convinced that “biomass power” will play a significant part in the future of renewable energies. The technology generates power and heat from renewable resource of wood and Ag waste, regardless of weather.

With biomass power, Omni offers tailor-made complete solutions and know-how generated from highly experienced development team. Woodbridge has partnered with Omni to ensure that Woodbridge Energy 1-3 LLC business or power generation will be sustainable energy system for 20 years or more. The following specifications for the CHP 1MW format is the heart of the Omni System to be deployed for Woodbridge projects.

Dairy

Woodbridge Energy LLC is teaming with Dairy partners/stakeholders to develop a 368,000 tons per year (TPY) waste-to-energy facility in the Turlock / Hilmar region of California to transform the area’s existing dairy, food, and green waste into valuable biofuel.

This state-of-the-art anaerobic digestion (AD) facility will maximize the production of renewable natural gas (RNG) and align with California’s continual efforts to combat climate change with the potential to dramatically reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. All organic dairy waste decomposes and inevitably emits methane, a potent GHG known to be 84 times more destructive than carbon dioxide to the environment. With the benefit of cap-and-trade programs and state enabled legislation that provides both mandates and financial incentives,

Furthermore, California Senate Bill 1383 (SB 1383) has provided aggressive land-disposal restrictions on organic waste. This AD facility will accept organic waste as feedstock, contributing to San Joaquin’s organic waste reduction efforts.
