Abstract: In order to make full use of the wasted bamboo planted in Shizuoka prefecture, Japan, this paper aims to design a small type of boiler where wasted bamboo is combusted, and from which the heat energy was taken out to heat the circulated water through a heat exchanger that is mounted inside the boiler. Then the heated water is circulated to a hothouse to keep the temperature inside to some extent. During research, firstly a series of fundamental studies including pyrolysis and SEM observation was conducted and activation energy under different conditions was calculated. Secondly, the concept diagram of the small boiler was proposed. Thirdly, design calculation based on numerical prediction was carried out. As a result, the relations between bamboo consumption with air temperature as well as solar radiation quantity was investigated.
