Performance analysis of a small-scale combined heat and power system using agricultural biomass residues: The SMARt-CHP demonstration project

The present paper describes the unit performance in terms of operation stability, application of different agricultural residues as well as the energy output of the process. The results show the effect of different types of biomass feedstock, gasification parameters and engine intake mixture to long-term operation and energy output while the obtained data will aid in the direction of CHP systems scale-up and optimization towards possible commercialization.
