Environmental advantages
Environmental advantages with the Biomal concept are:
- The risk for BSE-infection or other diseases is eliminated.
- The Biomal concept is an energy effective method compared with the more complicated conventional method.
- The risk for smell is reduced while the stages where the material is heated up is removed.
- The water usage and the discharge of biological oxygen demanding substances are reduced.
- Biomal is a renewable biofuel, which does not contribute to the global warming and can replace fossil fuels for production of heat and power.
- Biomal can reduce NOx emissions from existing boilers.
- Biomal has a heating value of about 7,6 - 8,3 MJ/kg fuel or about 2,2 MWh/ton which is comparable with a conventional biofuel with a moisture content of 50 %.
