Research abstract
Combustion of biomass, especially in small-scale applications, produces high emissions of particulate matter (PM) that have been linked to adverse health effects and global climate change. Current industrial particulate control solutions are prohibitively expensive for use in small scale biomass burners. To overcome these challenges, inexpensive and effective combustion control solutions for small scale applications are needed. The proposed intelligent combustion control system for biofuel combustion in small scale applications can curb PM and gaseous emissions. If successful, the proposed pollution control system will be a disruptive technology and will be low cost enough to be implemented in thousands of small scale installations.
