  1. Integrated Biomass Cofiring Larry Moot, KeLa Energy, LLC

  2. KeLa Engineered Fuel A fuel made up of recovered coal fines, recycled binding materials, and renewable biomass. Coal KeLa Engineered Fuel

  3. KeLa Engineered Fuel • Meets the needs of the customer - Air Emissions, Heating Value, Biomass • Fuel Rank – High-Volatile A Bituminous • Handled like coal

  4. KeLa Engineered Fuel Utilizes a readily available stream of recovered, recycled, and renewable waste materials • Recovered Coal Fines • Recycled Carpet • Recycled Plastic • Renewable Biomass

  5. KeLa Technology • Extrusion-based technology • Continuous process, 24/7 operation • Computer controlled metering & mixing • Formula flexibility

  6. KeLa Technology

  7. KeLa Technology Coal or Biomass Particle Fiber Reinforcement Adhesion Point Encapsulated Particle

  8. Coal Fines • Generated at coal mines and coal processing plants • Over two billion tons in 700 impoundment sites in the US • 50 million tons added each year • High quality coal • A substantial source of energy

  9. Recovered Raw Material Coal Fines • Diverted waste from coal processing • Recovered waste from impounds • Moisture up to 15% • Size – Less than 3/8”

  10. Renewable Raw Material Biomass • Regionally sourced from timber waste, mill waste, agriculture waste, urban waste • Moisture up to 50% • Size – Less than 3/8”

  11. Recycled Raw Material Carpet • Landfill diversion • Post Consumer & Post Industrial • More than five billion pounds placed in landfills yearly • All components used

  12. Recycled Raw Material Plastic • Post Consumer & Post Industrial • Mixed stream plastic • Size – Less than 3/8”

  13. Emissions Reductions • 35%-41% Lower Sulfur Oxides • 14%-41% Lower Nitrous Oxides • 3%-5% Lower Carbon Dioxide • 15% Lower Volatile Organic Chemicals • Reduced Hazardous Air Pollutants Compared to coal, based on stoker fuel trials. The quality of the coal, amounts of binder and biomass determine the final reductions. Reductions have been documented by independent testing based on EPA methodology.

  14. Emissions Reductions • Blending with binder & biomass • Increased Btu (binder & moisture reduction) • SOx Scrubbing (CaCO3 in binder)

  15. Benefits – Coal Producers • Increased preparation plant yield • Cost effective – increased coal value • Waste impound life extension • Recovered coal fines used in process • No special handling or storage • KeLa pellet ready for immediate shipment

  16. Benefits – Coal Users • Handled like coal • Stored outside - no pellet break-down • Biomass contained in pellet • Can be cofired with coal • Higher combustion efficiency than coal • Low moisture content • No equipment modifications • Eligible for RPS credits

  17. Benefits – Environment • Lower emissions • Uses recycled, renewable and recovered materials • No binder leaching during outside storage • Process makes high grade fuel from low grade coal fines

  18. KeLa Engineered Fuel Licensed Technology Providing the coal industry with a profitable, environmentally sound fuel by converting waste coal to a high-yield, cost-effective and marketable product.
