5th day at PTM...

(9th April 2010)
nothing much of tasks given today..
went down to GTFS department in the morning, help filling database of projects proposed to PTM... *really getting familiarized with Microsoft Excel now:)*.. while filling in the database, i took a look at 2 or 3 projects,.. :>

one of them is about supply of renewable energy steam to a company.. it is basically to reduce growth rate of Green House Gases(GHG) through displacement of fossil fuel for power & steam generation by utilising palm oil residues& other biomasses from industrial, and also landscaping activities via gasification system..:>

The project is to build a biomass power plant, fueled with mainly empty fruit brunches(EFB) wood waste.., the main technology in the steam generation system originates from the Babcock & Wilcox biomass furnace conceptual design; advance combustion & emission control.. :>

currently, steam is produced by natural gas,.. however, the supply of natural gas is limited ,hence, alternative energy source is required.:>

the system use pyrolysis technique to convert energy content of the EFB into steam for power generation..:>

also read about some other projects, which use quite the same concept and technology..:>

just got a surprise call from an unknown number.. apparently, i know who was on the phone.. really helped clear things off my head a bit, and freshens me up:> :>..
