Contexte client
Customer context
Valorize the biomass of the territory
The client is an entrepreneur from Brittany. One of its activities consists in supplying biomass to various actors of the area : forestry chips to biomass heating plants and Brest heating network, wood chips to poultry farmers and brown algae for organic amendments.
The plant allows him to make use of various resources as fuel: green waste of the area after crushing and sifting. Downstream, the heat produced by the plant is injected into a dryer that can dry a wide variety of materials – brown seaweed with 80% to 20% moisture content, wood chips with 55% to 15% moisture content and forestry chips with 35% to 15% moisture content – thus adding significant value to the materials.
