<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and apparatus for energy recovery of high moisture biomass having a quick processing speed. <P>SOLUTION: The high moisture biomass 1 is allowed to enter an airtight adiabatic vessel 11 and moisture of the biomass 1 is continuously vaporized and sucked from the inside of the vessel 11 by a water vapor compressor 12. The vaporized moisture is adiabatically compressed by the compressor 12, thereby, pressure and temperature of the vaporized moisture is elevated and the pressure-elevated steam is allowed to pass through a steam condenser 13 that is thermally connected to the inside of the vessel 11. Heat exchange is performed between the pressure-elevated steam and the biomass 1 and the moisture in the vessel 11 is vaporized. At the same time, the pressure-elevated steam releases condensation latent heat by itself, turns to distilled water 4 and is discharged from the condenser 13. Thus, the biomass 1 is separated into a low moisture biomass fuel 33 and distilled water 4. The biomass fuel 33 is taken out of the vessel 11 and is transduced into motive power (energy) 6 by a power generator 5 and meanwhile, the distilled water 4 is used as water for the power generator 5. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI |
