With respect to the experimental campaigns, are described below the main objectives to be pursued yet. The first
objective is to optimize thermal and chemical processes inside the boiler and gasification section the plant, fueled by
poultry manure; monitoring the physical and chemical parameters of the incoming material is used to determine the
optimal conditions for the realization of the maximum energy efficiency.
The second objective consists in the study of the formation processes of siliceous deposits inside the combustion
chamber and around the heat exchangers, since it is a significant problem in thermal processes that affect the
droppings. The formation of these deposits may impair the functionality of the system.
With regard to plant design, is ending the market investigation aimed at identifying the best system of break-bags
and load the raw material, which is very uneven and can contain elements which would militate against the flow of
the animal carcasses and parts of the plumage. The modification and adaptation of machinery for the production and
mobilization of the components of the concrete is pre-exist, while on the other hand, we are evaluating the
performance of machines chippers here adapted for the manure.
Finally will conduct a recognition of air conditioning units and heaters in the company, in order to retrieve them
and feed them with the new heat engine. The end result will be to achieve energy independence for the breeding host
experimentation and offer a model of energy production system replicated for poultry farms of small and medium
size, size is very common in Italy. [29].
