SynLEAP is Treehouz’s biomass gasification system, designed to convert a wide range of biomass waste and residues into energy-rich synthesis gas (syngas) for renewable heat and power generation. With flexible feedstock capabilities, SynLEAP can process oil palm biomass, including Empty Fruit Bunches (EFB), wood waste, wood chips, sawdust, and other agricultural, forestry, and woody biomass residues.
The SynLEAP biomass gasification system consists of:
Biomass Gasification
Reactor
Converts suitable biomass feedstocks into energy-rich syngas through a controlled thermochemical gasification process.
Syngas Cleaning &
Conditioning System
Cleans and conditions the produced syngas for efficient and reliable downstream energy applications.
Energy Generation
System
Utilizes syngas to generate renewable heat and/or electricity for industrial applications.
By converting palm oil biomass, wood waste and other biomass residues into useful energy, SynLEAP provides a flexible biomass-to-energy solution for industries seeking to improve waste utilization, reduce fossil fuel consumption and transition towards more sustainable energy production.
Key Technology Features
SynLEAP incorporates a range of engineering features designed to improve safety, reliability, thermal efficiency and long-term system performance.
Water-Cooled Dome Grate
Improves fuel-bed temperature control, durability and ash discharge while reducing overheating.
Multi-Point CO Monitoring
Eight CO probes continuously monitor reactor conditions for enhanced process control and safety.
Advanced Fuel-Level Detection
Manual and automatic level detection helps prevent bridging, blockages and inconsistent fuel feeding.
Double Bell Valve
Provides dual sealing at the buffer bin to minimize gas leakage and improve system gas tightness.
Tar Oil Recovery
Recovers tar from syngas and returns it to the gasification reactor to improve fuel utilization and reduce tar emissions.
Biomass Feedstocks for Gasification
One of the key advantages of biomass gasification is the ability to convert a wide range of biomass resources into usable energy. However, different biomass materials have different physical characteristics, and the feedstock needs to be appropriately prepared before entering the gasification system.
SynLEAP is designed to accommodate a broad range of biomass feedstocks, giving industries greater flexibility to utilise the biomass resources available at their facilities or in their local area. The system can be applied to various agricultural, forestry and industrial biomass residues, provided the material meets the appropriate feedstock requirements.
Feedstock Size Matters
For reliable gasification, the feedstock needs to be prepared to an appropriate size and physical form for the system. Oversized, irregular or unsuitable material may require processing before it can be introduced into the gasifier.
Treehouz can assess the available biomass and advise on the appropriate feedstock preparation requirements for SynLEAP biomass gasification systems. This allows a wide variety of locally available biomass resources to be considered for biomass-to-energy applications.
Whether you are looking to utilise agricultural residues, forestry by-products, palm biomass or other plant-based waste streams, Treehouz can help evaluate the feedstock and determine its suitability for a SynLEAP gasification solution.
Biomass Gasification for Industrial Applications
Every industrial facility has different processes, energy requirements and operating conditions. We work closely with customers to understand how their facility operates and identify how a biomass gasification system can be integrated effectively into their existing operations. SynLEAP can be integrated into industrial energy systems for applications such as heat generation, power generation, or combined heat and power.
Treehouz provides biomass gasification solutions for industries looking to make better use of their available biomass resources and reduce reliance on conventional fossil fuel energy. Each project is evaluated based on the characteristics of the available biomass, energy requirements, operating conditions and intended application to determine the appropriate gasification system and configuration.
