Definitions

  • This invention relates to fuel produced from drying and grinding organic matter and in particular to dried organic matter which is ground and pulverized to micron particle sizes to form a combustible fuel.
  • a non-oil fuel is produced from grinding and pulverizing materials which include the same raw material used to produce ElenolTM or hogged fuels, the difference being, again, in the present invention, the ground material is not mixed with a petroleum or gas fuel product.
  • the specific gravity of water is 62.5 lbs per cubic foot, thus a cubic foot of non-oil fuel weighs 93.75 lbs.
  • All organic matter is composed of roughly 48% carbon, 6% hydrogen, 43% oxygen, plus trace minerals and water.
  • Organic matter weighs differing amounts per cubic foot because of the number and size of airspaces within the material. For example, Balsa wood weighs 10 - 12 lbs per cubic foot while Lignum Nitae weighs 70 lbs per cubic foot. However, when both are micronized, they will weigh 93.75 lbs per cubic foot.
  • non-oil fuel is a more economical fuel than jet fuel by approximately 18% by volume.
  • the current price of kerosene is $694.40 per cubic meter in Canadian funds.
  • the non-oil fuel of the present invention may be produced with relatively minimal cost and without the loss of any BTU. More importantly, the burning efficiency of such non-oil fuel approximates 98 percent, which compares favourably to the burning efficiency of bone-dry wood at 80 percent.
  • the non-oil fuel of the present invention may of course be combined with petroleum products in a slurry, the fuel of the present invention is not combined with any other fuel to produce combustion.
  • Such non-oil fuel may be ignited by a spark or by a natural gas pilot flame as an example. It has been applicant's experience that combusting the non-oil fuel of the present invention does not produce harmful emissions in the manner of fossil fuel combustion.
  • non-oil fuel of the present invention may be utilized as a fuel for electrical generation depending on the fuel delivery system and ignition system in the electrical generator turbine engine. Applicant has noted that, because the non-oil fuel is finely ground, that when it is dry it tends to stick together.
  • the organic fuel of the present invention includes dried organic material ground to a particulate size of substantially less than 300 microns.
  • the particulate material may advantageously be of less than or equal to 10 microns.
  • the organic matter may be chosen from the group containing agricultural waste or wood waste, wherein the agricultural waste may include waste straw and wherein the wood waste may include bark.
  • the method of producing the organic fuel of the present invention includes the steps of drying organic material and grinding or otherwise pulverizing (hereinafter generically referred to as grinding) the organic material into particulate form having a particulate size of substantially 300 microns or less.
  • the method may include the step of grinding the organic material so as to form particulate sizes of less than or equal to 10 microns.
  • the organic material may include agricultural or wood waste, although this is not intended to be limiting but, rather, illustrative of carbon-based material including carbon-based waste material.
  • the non-oil fuel of the present invention is produced by drying, grinding and pulverizing organic matter to produce particles having a size of less than 300 microns, and in one preferred embodiment, less than 10 microns.
  • the organic matter may be any organic matter, including although not limited to, agricultural waste such as wheat straw, wood waste, bark, so long as it may be dried, ground and pulverized into a fine powder.
  • the non-oil fuel of the present invention may also be combined with petroleum fuels for example as a slurry with kerosene. It has been applicant's determination that in such an embodiment the non-oil fuel of the present invention can represent at least 75 percent of the combined volume of the fuel. It has also been applicant's observation that micronized non-oil fuel of the present invention weighs more than kerosene by a ratio of 1.88. Applicant's calculations indicate that, for the same volume of non-oil fuel as compared to kerosene or gas, non-oil fuel has more useable BTU content than either kerosene or gas. It has also been applicant's observation that when mixed with kerosene, the micronized non-oil fuel of the present invention flows as a fluid without particulate adhesion, that is, the particles of the non-oil fuel do not cling together.
  • the non-oil fuel of the present invention may be used as a fuel as a substitute for petroleum product fuels.
  • the cost of the non-oil fuel of the present invention is negligible in that it turns organic waste into fuel.
  • This also presents the advantage that, by using organic waste as fuel, conventional waste disposal problems are eliminated or at least reduced. So too, the pollution produced by burning fossil fuels is also either eliminated or reduced.
  • the by-products left from the burning of the non-oil fuel of the present invention are water vapour, and ash, the latter component being reduced to between 0.02 and 0.08 percentage of the original volume of the fuel. Applicant has had success in ignition of flour particles entrained in a stream of air.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un combustible organique fait d'une matière organique broyé dont les particules ont un calibre n'excédant pas sensiblement les 300 µm. Cette matière particulaire peut avantageusement ne pas excéder un calibre de 10 µm. En outre, la matière organique peut être choisie dans le groupe contenant des déchets agricoles ou sylvicoles. Les déchets agricoles peuvent inclure des déchets de paille, de même que les déchets sylvicoles peuvent inclure des écorces.
