The EPA certified burner scaled up from 34000 Btu's to 250000 Btu's was tested at the Environment and Energy labs of McGill University. The stack emissions results indicated that there were no detectable Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC, contained in the wood smoke are toxic chemicals to humans) and no detectable particulate in the exhaust filter pads, making this solid fuel burner one the cleanest burner technologies in the world. The prototype is being developed for commercial and light industrial applications. For more information contact drisdelle@pelletstove.com
www.mda.state.mn.us Where does energy come from? Sun, rain, air, soil, and plants play an important role in energy production. It all involves the carbon cycle. How are todays fuels (and the pollutants they emit) impacting the environment? Understanding how the carbon cycle works reveals our need to find clean, renewable fuel sources. This video is part of the "Fields of Energy" DVD, a production of Minnesota Agriculture in the Classroom. "Fields of Energy" and its 12 segments are an introduction to how agriculture uses science and technology to look for renewable energy and fuel.
