"0075] Equipment generally used for grinding biomass includes impact mills (e.g. hammer mills), attrition mills, and kinetic disintegration mills- KDS (e.g. flail mills). A hammer mill system, KDS, or similar system can be used to grind the bales (loaded by conveyer) into particles, which are to be fed into the radiant heat flux thermal gasifier. The ground particles have an average screen size between 500 microns (um) and 1000 um in diameter, and are loaded into, a silo with a standard belt conveyer or with a positive or negative pressure pneumatic conveying system. The ground particles may also have an average screen size between 50 microns (um) and 1000 um, 50 microns (um) and 200 um, 50 microns (um) and 2000 um and various combinations."
