OFFER CONCERNING DELIVERY OF A WOOD CHIPS FUELLED UPDRAFT
GASIFIER BASED STIRLING-ENGINE CHP PLANT
1. General
This document contains an offer for the delivery of a wood chips fuelled, updraft gasifier based
Stirling-engine CHP plant with a 600 kW updraft gasifier and three (3) 35 kWe Stirling engines.
The offer contains a description of the proposed plant configuration, a description of the scope of
supply, time schedule, price, and payment- and delivery conditions.
2. Description of Plant
The proposed plant has a combustion system which consists of a 600 kW updraft gasifier which is
fed by up to 600 kW wood chips with a moisture content from 25 - 55%.
The gasifier delivers gas at a temperature of around 70°C to three (3) combustion chambers which
are each situated above a 35 kWe Stirling engine. The gas is ignited in the combustion chambers,
heating the Stirling engines by the flue gases, whereby electricity is generated.
The hot flue gases are directed through air pre-heaters which heat up the combustion intake air in
order to increase the combustion temperature in the combustion chambers. The remaining energy in
the flue gases is used to heat the cooling water up to 85°C via an economizer.
The plant is fully automated and is controlled by a plc with data collection.
Main data

5. Time Schedule
Based on a contract signature before 1st June 2009, the time schedule is as follows:
Delivery of updraft gasifier: September 2009
Delivery of combustion chambers: September 2009
Delivery of other plant components: October 2009
Delivery of Stirling engines: December 2009
6. Guarantees
A two year guarantee on all components delivered by SD is provided up to a maximum of 10,000
hours of operation. The guarantee is only valid if the plant has been operated in accordance with the
specified operating parameters, including water temperatures, quality of wood chips, etc.
For standard components, such as valves and pumps, the normal guarantee of the OEM-supplier is
valid.
The guarantee does not include possible damages which might occur as a consequence of the plant
not being operated according to the operation manual or, if in any other way, the plant has been
mishandled.
SD covers all expenses in connection with guarantee repairs, including the transport of the parts to
the plant and the installation of the new parts. The guarantee does not cover the possible loss of
production revenue.

7. Service
Engines
Piston rod seals and bearings should be exchanged every 4,000 hours of operation. In addition to
these regular 4,000 hour services, there is one major service after 50,000 hours of operation.
Costs for engine services are:
• 5,000 EUR/engine
Furthermore, a few times a year, the heater surfaces need to be cleaned. The normal cleaning
interval is 4,000 hours but it can vary quite a lot depending on the quality of the wood chips and
misc. operating factors. It is a very simple process to clean the heaters and that the engine does not
need to be disassembled for this purpose.
Combustion System
Service of the combustion system is not included. Screw conveyors, burners, dampers, valves, etc.,
will experience wear and tear like a traditional wood chips based heat plant.
8. Payment Terms
Down-payment: 25%
Delivery of updraft gasifier: 15%
Delivery of combustion chamber no 1: 10%
Delivery of combustion chamber no 2: 10%
Delivery of combustion chamber no 3: 10%
Delivery of Stirling engine no 1: 10%
