Construction continues on the new Nexterra/GE Combined Heat and Power System at the UBC campus in Vancouver BC. The biomass gasification and syngas conditioning system is integrated with a GE Jenbacher gas engine. When completed, the system will produce 2 MW of electricity and 9,000 lbs/hr of low pressure steam.
Nexterra biomass system confirmed as one of the cleanest in North America
Recent third party testing and analysis of the Nexterra biomass gasification system at UNBC has concluded that the plant is one of the cleanest biomass facilities operating in North America. Test results show that the Nexterra system generates emission levels for Particulate Matter (PM), Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC), Carbon Monoxide (CP) and Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) that are extremely low for biomass energy systems and are similar to natural gas.
