Wood is the most natural and oldest fuel in the world. A healthy forest is not only a complex
ecosystem and habitat, but one of the most determining factors for the global climate.
Especially its role as carbon storage and producer of oxygen is essential for survival to humans and nature!
Heating with wood is the best alternative compared to fossil fuels. The renewable raw material will
replace common energy soruce in the long run. A tree is grown up to a usable size in 70 – 90 years
whereas coal and oil need 50 - 300 million years for the comparable amount of energy.
With the combustion of wood only the amount of carbon dioxide required by the plant during
growth is released. Thus, the raw material is on the one hand a reservoir for current emissions and
at the same time a fuel for subsequent generations.
Wood as fuel is not only carbon neutral, but also cheaper. It is not exposed to fluctuations in price
of oil and gas and not dependent on global political crises. It promotes regional added value and
makes the consumer a little more independent.
Heating with wood is not only ecological but also economical. The use of the local raw material
supports the regional agriculture. The stable lower price compared to fossil energy sources in
connection with state subsidies for biomass plants are reason enough to rely on the natural raw
material now.
Wood gasification boilers are no ordinary boilers. They differ fundamentally in the combustion process from common wood boilers. In order to achieve the best possible combustion it is necessary to ignite the socalled wood gas. Wood gas is a hard to ignite gas consisting of carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), methane, ethylene, hydrogene and steam that could reach up to 1100°C when inflamed. But the wood gas has to exhaust from the wood. In the BioX the wood is dried automatically at 200°C. This process starts right after the filling and heating up of the wood gasification boiler in the upper combustion chamber. The residual moisture evaporates from the wood logs. Afterwards the wood starts to decompose and the ingredients lignin and cellulose exhaust as gas from the wood. These gases are ignited and already reach temperatures up to 600°C. Only now the hard to ignite wood gas is released and ignited by the supply of oxygen. The energy stored in the wood is released in the most efficient way and transferred to the heating system in the best possible way. Glowing charcoal forms a bed of embers in the combustion chamber, which is hot enough to dry further wood. At the end an extremely small amount of ash remains.
