Our biomass analysis services
Our biomass analysis services
ALPS offers a wide range of biomass analysis services, designed to meet the needs of diverse industries. Our expert team utilises state-of-the-art laboratory facilities to deliver accurate and reliable results. Our services include:
Moisture Content Analysis: Determining the water content in substrate materials, which is essential for evaluating its energy potential and storage requirements.
Calorific Value Testing: Measuring the energy content of biomass to assess its suitability as a fuel source.
Ash Content Analysis: Evaluating the inorganic residue left after combustion, which impacts the quality and efficiency of biomass fuels.
Elemental Composition Analysis: Determining the concentration of key elements (carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, sulphur) in feedstock to assess its chemical characteristics.
Volatile Matter Testing: Analysing the amount of volatile compounds released during heating, which influences the combustion process.
Fibre and Lignin Content Analysis: Measuring the structural components of a substrate to understand its suitability for various industrial processes.
Trace Metals and Contaminants Testing: Identifying and quantifying trace metals and potential contaminants that could affect the quality and environmental impact of the feedstock.
Biomethane Potential (BMP) Testing: Assessing the potential of feedstock to produce methane during anaerobic digestion. This test is crucial for biogas production, helping you determine the efficiency and viability of your feedstock for generating renewable energy.
