Abstract: A biomass gasification system for efficiently extracting heat energy from biomass material. The biomass gasification system includes a primary combustion chamber, a rotating grate within the primary combustion chamber for supporting the biomass during gasification, a feeder unit in communication with the primary combustion chamber for delivering biomass, a secondary combustion chamber fluidly connected to the primary combustion chamber, an oxygen mixer positioned between the primary combustion chamber and the secondary combustion chamber, a heat exchanger and an exhaust stack.

Abstract: A method for manually reattaching solder balls onto a plurality of contact areas arranged in a pattern on a device to be reballed is provided. First, a single use preform with a plurality of solder balls arranged in a pattern corresponding to the pattern of contact areas on the device is provided. The solder balls are held in respective apertures in the preform by an adhesive layer on the preform that defines a closed end of the apertures and are partially exposed on one side of the preform. A solder paste or paste flux is applied to, at least, the contact areas of the device. The device is manually aligned with the exposed solder balls of the preform and the device and the exposed balls of the preform are manually brought into contact. The aligned device and preform are heated to reflow the solder balls onto the land areas of the device. The preform including the adhesive layer is then removed from the device with the solder balls being retained on the device.

Abstract: A biomass shredder system for providing a consistent flow of fuel to a furnace or feed application. The biomass shredder system includes a conveyer unit to carry a straw bale, a separator unit attached to the conveyer unit, wherein the separator unit includes a plurality of separator members and a shredding unit slidably attached to the separator unit. The shredding unit includes a plurality of blades positioned in-between each of the plurality of separator members, wherein the plurality of blades shred the straw bale.
