Pressurized waste wood furnace system

Abstract From the Canadian patent

A forced draft fan creates within a furnace fuel cell a pressure which is high enough to provide a pressure gradient effective to force the combustion gases from the cell all the way to the dryer. The combustion gases are provided by waste wood products which are forced by a special feeding system into the fuel cell against the resistance of the relatively high air pressure within the cell, to create a burning pile. The feeding system blocks most of the smoke and combustion gases from back-feeding through the fuel passageway, and then removes the part that is not blocked. The combustion gases during the drying process become wet. A part of these wet gases are vented at the dryer but a …
