| Ford Building Bigger 'fumes To Fuel' Project |
|
Posted on 9/10/2007 7:42:15 AM
The latest version of Ford Motor Co.'s "fumes-to-fuel" process to convert volatile organic compounds from production paint lines into electricity will be teamed with a 300kW molten carbonate fuel cell at the company's Oakville, Ont., assembly plant, AutoTech Daily reported Monday.
Danbury, Conn.-based FuelCell Energy Inc. will supply its DFC300MA stationary fuel cell pack for the program.
The traditional way to combat paint emissions is to concentrate them via rotary carbonwheels. The resulting concentrate is thermally oxidized at 1400 degrees Fahreneheit, which requires copious amounts of electricity and natural gas. With the fuel-to-fumes method co-developed by Detroit Edison, carbon beads are used to separate VOCs from the paint emissions. Ford says the fluidized bed used in the process improves concentration levels by 250 percent. |
