Green Methanol From Paulownia Woody Biomass

by -

Green Methanol Woody Biomass
Green methanol from paulownia woody biomass is a promising sustainable alternative to fossil-fuel-derived methanol. Green methanol is produced using renewable resources and has the potential to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Here’s a breakdown of the process and its benefits:

Production Process:
Wood Chips BioMass: BioMass Chips From https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/fast-growing-purposed-grown-paulownia-biomass-victor-garlington-3ride/

The Paulownia tree is one of the fastest-growing tree species in the world, capable of growing up to 10-15 feet in a single year under ideal conditions. With a potential biomass yield of up to 150 tons per acre per year, this tree offers an abundant, renewable feedstock.

Biomass Gasification: Paulownia Woody biomass, from forest residues, wood chips, or dedicated energy crops, is heated in a controlled environment with limited oxygen. This process converts the biomass into a synthesis gas (syngas), primarily composed of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide.

BioChar Production: Utilizes pyrolysis to produce biochar and has numerous benefits to the environment and the bottom line. This process emits syngas. What is biochar? https://bioeconomysolutions.com/what-is-biochar/

Syngas Cleaning and Conditioning: The syngas is cleaned to remove impurities like tar and adjusted to the proper hydrogen-to-carbon monoxide ratio (2:1) for methanol synthesis.

Methanol Synthesis: The purified syngas is then reacted over a catalyst at elevated temperatures and pressures to produce methanol.

Methanol Purification: The raw methanol is purified to remove any remaining impurities and achieve the desired quality.

Benefits of Green Methanol from Woody Biomass:
Renewable and Sustainable: paulownia woody biomass is a renewable resource that can be sustainably sourced, reducing reliance on fossil fuels.

Reduced Greenhouse Gas Emissions: Compared to conventional methanol production, this process can significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The biomass feedstock absorbs carbon dioxide during growth, creating a closed carbon loop.

Energy Security: Utilizing domestic paulownia woody biomass resources can enhance energy security and reduce dependence on foreign oil.

Economic Development: It can create jobs and stimulate economic growth in rural areas with abundant biomass resources.

Versatile Applications: Green methanol can be used as a fuel in various applications, including transportation, power generation, and the production of chemicals and plastics.

Growing Green Methanol Market

Multiple companies and research institutions are actively involved in developing and commercializing green methanol production from paulownia woody biomass.

Feedstock Availability: Ensuring a sustainable and reliable supply of paulownia woody biomass can be challenging, especially when considering competition with other biomass uses like bioenergy or biofuels. Fast growing purpose grown paulownia biomass ensures biomass feedstock availability for the market.

Production Costs: Currently, green methanol production from paulownia woody biomass can be more expensive than conventional methanol. However, advancements in technology and economies of scale are expected to reduce costs in the future.

Infrastructure: Existing infrastructure for methanol production and distribution may need to be adapted or expanded to accommodate green methanol in certain market places.

Scale-up: The main bottleneck for near-future scaling is the capacity to construct new bio-methanol production facilities

Overall, green methanol from paulownia woody biomass represents a promising pathway towards a more sustainable and decarbonized energy future. Green methanol produced from paulownia woody biomass and other renewables could fuel a growing percentage of vehicles and ships in the coming decades.

As technology advances and production costs decrease, it has the potential to play a significant role in various sectors, reducing our reliance on fossil fuels and mitigating climate change.

WHAT IS PAULOWNIA?

The first thing is to answer the question of what is Paulownia ? The paulownia’s tree is one of the fastest growing trees on earth. Once harvested, you do not have to replant it as it will regrow new shoots from the stumpage. It’s a leafy fast growing tree that belongs to the family of paulowniaceae, it is one of the deciduous trees leaf. It has its origin in Southeast Asia, specifically Chinese, it is also known as << Empress tree >>.

In Japan it is commonly known as kiri, reaches 15 feet in height in its first year, this type of development is more typical of a plant than a tree.

This fact has a positive impact on our planet, since it greatly helps to combat climate change for carbon projects which nowadays it’s something very valuable for a nature based solution.

The Paulownia Tree – A Green Giant Against Climate Change

A full growth paulownia tree captures 10 times more CO2 than the rest of the tree species thanks to its rapid growth.

On the other hand, the Paulownia tree has the reputation of being a miraculous tree because it purifies the soil where it anchors its roots and it is capable of sprouting up to seven times once it has been cut.

Paulownia Strip Canoe & Kayak Build Fabrication

by -

Ever consider a cedar strip canoe or kayak project? Have you also considered doing the same project with paulownia? Paulownia as a replacement for cedar? What is paulownia wood link?

A cedar strip canoe is made by assembling strips of wood over a wooden frame and they are fun DIY projects for skilled woodworkers. A quality cedar strip kayak kit or a
cedar strip canoe kit will guide you with various style designs, directions and give you’re a fun usable new toy after your finished 🙂

What is the best wood for a canoe strip?
Cedar is often used to make a wooden strip canoe but paulownia wood could also be used. Fiberglass coverings are also used to make it more durable and cut down on the required maintenance. 
Video – Strip Kayak & Canoe Fabrication from Paulownia Wood
https://youtu.be/2CRfurszYVk?si=ft5ZmuawoTV5Yw8G

 

What is the weight of cedar v.s. paulownia?

  • Cedar is rated at 22 lbs per cubic foot – Janka Hardness: 320 lbf (1420 N)
  • Paulownia is rated at 18 lbs per cubic foot – Janka Hardness: 300 lbf (1,330 N)
  • Paulownia Wood Total = 18 % decrease in weight

White Cedar strip canoes & kayaks kits

Cedar is the usual goto wood for canoe ribs and planking. Its light weight, strength, flexibility and rot resistance can not be matched by any other except paulownia wood. Production of northern white cedar lumber is mainly in Maine and the Great Lake States, yet white cedar, it is still very difficult to find, select and sort out the knots and defect-free lumber that is required for kayak construction. Paulownia is usually knot free which is something common to the species.

How many hours does it take to build a paulownia strip canoe DIY style?

What can an amateur builder expect? As a guideline a first time builder who is making a stemless 15′ Anglers Day with purchased seats and thwarts, simple decks, and no fancy marquetry should commit a minimum of 10 full weekends. That’s 20 full days or 160 hours.
“I think it’s really worth the experience. I hope you try it!” It takes a lot of time, around 130 – 160 hours on average. So when it’s finished and you’ve created a beautiful, strong, light paulownia strip canoe, and you will be proud of your unique creation.

How much wood do I need for a paulownia strip canoe?
It takes 1200-to-1300 lineal feet of NWC cedar or paulownia strips to build most tandem canoes, roughly $450-500 for strips. An easy method to figure the lineal footage you need for any particular hull design is to measure the the distance gunwale to gunwale around the center form.

Northern white cedar lumber costs $4 to $7 per square foot, this variety is less dense than other cedars, making it easy to cut and maneuver.
Paulownia lumber grown in North America cost $4 to $8 per square foot, this wood is used in a variety of water action sports from surfboards, paddle boards, skis etc.

How heavy is a cedar strip canoe v.s. a paulownia strip canoe?
For standard strip built construction with 1/4″ thick western red cedar strips with 6 ounce fiberglass inside and out, a good estimate will be 0.7 pound per square foot of surface area. In other words a boat like the Guillemot with a surface area of 47 square feet, this will give a bare hull weight of about 32 pounds. Using paulownia wood strips in this same build you can expect a total bare hull weight of 26 lbs saving you a total of 6 lbs of total weight.

How Does Paulownia Lumber Sand?

by -

Recently we had some visitors to our paulownia plantation. It was their first time with paulownia wood and as always if you place
a dried plank of paulownia in their hands their faces change as if they had seen a magic trick, because of the lightness of the paulownia wood plank.

So the questions begin and this post is about one question that we are asked quite often… How does paulownia wood lumber sand?

This is part of our video short takes on the process of sanding paulownia tree wood lumber.

Video Link: https://youtu.be/hIuKduwqzvc

Paulownia wood takes nails easily, and no it did not split or crack.

Finishing – The sap of Paulownia is not gum or resinous based, thus the application of finishing products with various solvents as carriers does not risk any interaction with the timber, contributing to the very good finishing properties of Paulownia products. The timber readily takes stains, estapols and paints with excellent finished surfaces.

Workability – All aspects of carpentry such as machining, nailing, screwing, gluing, sanding, sawing and handling are very user friendly with no splinters, cracking or splitting and excellent take-up of glues and finishes.
