A system for burning biomass to fuel a gas turbine (10) which generally comprises a pressurized combustion chamber (54), a feed device (14) for feeding biomass particles into the combustion (54), an air compressor (82) for supplying compressed air to the combustion chamber (54), an ash extracting device (92) for removing ash from the combustion gases (75), a turbine (116) and a central controller (126) for monitoring and controlling various aspects of the system (10). The biomass is fed into the combustion chamber (54) where the particles combust and produce highly pressurized combustion gases (75). The ash extracting device (92) removes the ash in the combustion gases (75) before the combustion gases (75) enter the turbine (116). The highly pressurized combustion gases (75) enter the turbine (116) where they expand to produce work and cause the blades of the turbine (116) to rotate. The turbine (116) drives an electrical generator which is linked to a power transmission line through any suitable switching gear. |
