IRONBRIDGE POWER PLANT - SVERN GORGE UK

The IronBridge Power Plant is the biggest biomass plant in the whole world. its located just outside of Birmingham.

The energy produced in the biomass plant comes from direct combustion. The biomass mixture gets put into a massive roasting hot boiler to produce really high pressure steam. The steam that just got produced flushes over turbine blades, the blades spin. when the blades spinning it triggers a generator. he generator produces electricity that we use for our homes and businesses.

The plant opened on the 13th of october 1932, it was originally a coal fired plant but two units got changed into a biomass plant. The plant has a 740MW capacity and can generate from around 200 MW up to 740MW. the biomass plant produces air pollutants which have a number of health harms, it can increase cancer risks, asthma attacks, respiritory issues, premature deaths, the pollutants can also interfere with the growth of crops. Deforestation, trees and forests get stripped down because major amounts of wood gets used for the plants.

IN 2015 THE POWER STATION SHUT DUE TO THE LARGE COMBUSTION PLANT DIRECTIVE

AFTER WORLD WAR 2 THE DEMAND FOR ELECTRICITY WAS ALOT HIGHER SO PART A OF THE PLANT PARTIALLY CLOSED AND THEY OPENED A NEW SECTON, SECTION B

THE FULL CAPACITY OF IRONBRIDGE WAS NOT REALIZED UNTIL MAJOR EXPANSIONS AND COMMISSIONING OF EXTRA BOILERS HAD BEEN COMPLETED IN 1939.

DISADVANTAGES OF A BIOMASS PLANT

ADVANTAGES OF A BIOMASS PLANT

Because it's a renewable source of energy it means it's always and widely available.

It's carbon neutral, it releases the same amount of carbon into the atmosphere as was absorbed by plants.

Biomass plants also have big impacts on the environment, he pollutants can interfere with the growth of crops but most importantly deforestation, biomass plants are a big part of deforestation.

Biomass helps reduce waste and it is very reliable.

There are loads of good things about a biomass plant, one of the main things is that it's a great source of renewable energy.

These air pollutants have a lot of impact on health, they can increase cancer risks, increase asthma attacks, respiratory issues, premature deaths and also sickness.

amet.

A biomass plant produces a number of air pollutants.

DEFORESTATION IN GENERAL

Deforestation is when trees and forests get chopped down for wood to be used for non forest use, deforestation sometimes means just chopping down forests but in some cases the forest land gets converted to farm land. Deforestation is most commonly occurring in tropical rainforests around the world.

Trees get chopped down, turned into wood pellets which then gets burned for power in the biomass system.

Assessment

Biomassmplants have a huge effect on deforestation, the biomass energy industry strip forests down for wood to power the plants.
