Lessons learned from existing biomass power plants
Open accessAbstract
This report includes summary information on 20 biomass power plants, which represent some of the leaders in the industry. In each category an effort is made to identify plants that illustrate particular points. The project experiences described capture some important lessons learned that lead in the direction of an improved biomass power industry.

Different categories of biomass fuels exhibit different chemical compositions, especially trace elements such as K, Cl, S, Na, and Ca.
“Due to their different origins, these different categories of fuels exhibit different chemical compositions, especially with regards to trace elements, such as K, Cl, S, Na, and Ca [11,12].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
