A mobile platform based biomass powered harvester has a header, a biomass processor, a heated storage container, a guidance system, a biomass gasification reactor, a syngas engine, an electric generator, and a guidance system. The header harvests biomass. The biomass processor includes a shredder, a press, a dryer, and a densifier. The densifier compacts the biomass into a multitude of compressed biomass pieces. The heated storage container receives compressed biomass pieces from the biomass processor. The guidance system guides the mobile platform at a speed determined by the operating capacity of the densifier. The biomass gasification reactor generates syngas from compressed biomass pieces. The syngas engine generates shaft power. The electrical generator converts the shaft power to electricity to power the guidance system. |
