Biomass Conversion and Testing Facility

Engineering students at UP need to be able to safely conduct hands-on combustion experiments. The Biomass Conversion and Testing Facility capstone team designed and constructed a fume hood to remove and measure the emissions from small scale combustion experiments. The team tested the system with cookstoves used in developing countries, which reduce human exposure to the pollutants from traditional biomass fires.https://pilotscholars.up.edu/egr_project/1048/thumbnail.jp
