Dear biodigestion experts,
A milk processing company in our vicinity (Tanga, Tanzania) has had a lasting interest in converting its milk pasteurising process from running on propane to running on biogas. I am doing them a little favour by helping them to make a feasibility study and find the right people that will make this happen. Unfortunately I have very little experience in biogas combustion and would like to find out if anyone here is/knows someone who could help us on this subject. I am looking for a someone that could make a cost-effective modification/replacement to the current burner, so that it can may run interchangeably on biogas or propane. I've included a few system specifications below: Burner make/model: Buderus Logano SE635 Gas regulator make: Dreizler Gas: Propane @ 1.5 bar (apparently not of particularly good quality) Heating power: 250kW Usage: 230-300 litres of liquified propane gas /day The burner is used to heat water from around 70 degrees C to 95 degrees C in a boiler. Does anyone know if such a replacement/modification is typically financially viable? Of course this depends on the rest of the system but I would be interested of hearing/reading about similar switch-overs in this ballpark that have been carried out before with financial success in the context of their own systems. Many thanks for any help that could be offered. Best regards, Edward _______________________________________ Edward Matos MEng (Hons.), AMIMechE, Hon.MSEE Mobile: +255(0) 686 128 037
