The invention describes a novel heating boiler for wooden pellets for the implementation in CHP plants. Through the use of a counter-flow the air gets cleaned effectively and automatically from ash that is produced while the gasification of the wooden pellets. High temperature corrosion and fouling of the heat exchanger of a stirling engine can be reduced drastically. Up-to-date emission instructions can be reached at high effiency.
Although global concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere have continuously increased over the past decade, the mean global surface temperature has…
