Retrofitting a piece of equipment or an existing industrial heating system can be very challenging, but it can be especially frustrating if you haven't planned well ahead of time. You'll want to be sure that you've done your homework to ensure that retrofitting the piece of equipment you have in the way you have in mind is actually possible.
If it is possible, you'll want to work with the appropriate engineers to figure out exactly what it will entail, how much it will cost, what impact it will have on operations, etc.
Wood fuel has several environmental advantages compared with fossil fuels. Wood can be continually replenished, which leads to a sustainable and dependable supply. However, proper forest management must be practiced to ensure that growing conditions are not degraded during biomass production.
There is little net production of carbon dioxide from wood combustion, because the CO2 generated during combustion of wood equals the CO2 consumed during the lifecycle of the tree. Transporting the material using petroleum generates excess CO2.
