Impact Study on the Use of Biomass-Derived Fuels in Gas Turbines for Power Generation

    Research output: NRELTechnical Report

    Abstract

    This report evaluates the properties of fuels derived from biomass, both gaseous and liquid, against the fuel requirements of gas turbine systems for generating electrical power. The report attempts to be quantitative rather than merely qualitative to establish the significant variations in their properties of biomass fuels from those of conventional fuels. Three general categories are covered:performance, durability, and storage and handling.
