Is the sequence of exothermic chemical reactions between a fuel and an oxidant. Accompanied by the production of heat and conversion of chemical species. The release of heat can result in the production of light in the form of either glowing. Or a flame. Fuels of interest often include organic compounds (especially hydrocarbons) in the gas, liquid or solid phase. A simple example can be seen in the combustion of hydrogen and oxygen, which is a commonly used reaction in rocket engines. Links to this post.

Anaerobic Digestion for Power Generation. Is a series of processes in which microorganisms. Material in the absence of oxygen, used for industrial or domestic purposes to manage waste and/or to release energy. It is widely used as part of the process to treat wastewater. As part of an integrated waste management system, anaerobic digestion reduces the emission of landfill gas into the atmosphere. The technical expertise required to maintain industrial scale anaerobic digesters coupled with high capital c...

Biomass power plant begins operations at university ~ Biomass Power Plant

http://biomasspowerplants.blogspot.com/2011/10/biomass-power-plant-begins-operations.html

Biomass power plant begins operations at university. Eastern Illinois University (EIU) and Honeywell (NYSE: HON) started the school's Renewable Energy Center (REC), one of the largest university biomass installations in the country. The gasifiers will consume an estimated 27,000 tons of wood per year, replacing the more than 10,000 tons of coal burned annually by EIU's existing plant, which will be decommissioned and repurposed for other university needs. The new plant is part of an energy- and environme...
