      Demolition wood fuelled down draft gasifiers, for power generation with gas engines. I was contracted to investigate and evaluate the cause of two major process disturbances in an existing gasification plant for electricity generation from demolition wood in the United Kingdom. Parts of the investigation included the plant that was under construction on a another location. I worked with the process review, operational review, and analysis, and the final report. www.regencoenergy.com Demolition wood fuelled down draft gasifiers, for power generation with gas engines.

      Wood fuelled pressurised, oxygen/steam operated gasifier with catalytic reformer and water gas shift, with integrated combined cycle with gas burner. I was a key person in the technical group for a rebuilding project (from existing IGCC to synthesis gas production for second generation transport fuel production). I worked with functional analysing, project meetings, process analysing, commissioning, development of technical descriptions, specifications, and supplier relations and procurement. This resulted in a basic/detailed engineering and ready for procurement. Due to lack of industrial partners, the project was terminated by the government. I was responsible for mothballing the entire plant. Show less

      Biomass fuelled atmospheric indirect gasifier with methanation generation plant. I held a position in the technical group for Gobigas, which would produce natural gas based on biomass gasification. This was the first facility of its kind for commercial operation. I was involved in reviewing the technology (indirect gasification designed by Repotec) and worked in the technical group with both gasification (licence agreement with Metso Power) and methanation (supplied by Haldor Topsøe). My task involved functional analysis, hazop / risk analysis, project meetings, process analysis, plant and P&ID review, test runs in Güssing in Austria as well as in producing technical documentation/descriptions/drawings and specifications and more.

      I inspected and performed Status review of two gasification plants which supply gas to the lime-kiln in paper mills (Norrsundet bruks AB and ASSI Karlsborg). The facility had originally been built by Foster Wheeler and I was contracted to inspect the overall condition of the plants and to produce a report.

      Biomass fuelled pressurised gasifier, integrated combined cycle with gas turbine. I was contracted by ABB, as a sub contractor as part of a team, to replace the existing control system (DCS) at the Varnamo IGCC power plant for biomass utilisation. The Status Review determined that the control system was obsolete and couldn't handle the increase in signals from 1600 I/O to 3500 I/O. My responsibility as subcontractor to ABB was to build the graphics and quality assure the process. The control system was changed from a “Honeywell Alcont” system to a “ABB freelance 800F” with a “Hima” safety system. Show less

      Biomass fuelled pressurised gasifier, integrated combined cycle with gas turbine. I was contracted by VVBGC AB as part of a team, to perform a Status Review of the overall plant. The review was done to support/determine the economic and process impact to resume the plant into operational status (with planned upcoming rebuilding project for synthetic gas production in mind). The plant had by then been mothballed for 5 years. Biomass fuelled pressurised gasifier, integrated combined cycle with gas turbine.

      Woodchip fuelled atmospheric gasifier, integrated combined cycle with gas turbine. I was a consultant with the task of going through the entire plant and look for constructional shortcomings, and then to propose changes or transformation, if and when this was considered to be necessary. Furthermore, I worked with designing and redesigning parts of the system to prevent future problems and to optimize and increase the productivity of the plant. I participated in hazops and was responsible for writing the overall operating manual of the plant. During the fifteen commissioning trials I was deeply involved in operation, testing, analysing, modifying and planning the way forward. I reported directly to the project manager, the commissioning manager and the plant manager. Show less

      Biomass fuelled pressurised gasifier, integrated combined cycle with gas turbine.Developed and demonstrated biomass gasification (IGCC).I was a part of the development team for renewable energy technology. This was the only operating station of it's kind in the world. We successfully managed to gasify forest residue, pellets, RDF and straw, and combust it in a gas turbine.During test runs I was operating the station. I also redesigned, modified systems, and found solutions to problems that arise during the development of this technology. I worked very close with the project manager. Show less
