An apparatus 10 for feeding solid particles from a low pressure zone to a high pressure zone which generally comprises a live bottom bin 11 for feeding solid particles into a flow dividing auger 12 filling compartments 13 and 14 which in turn alternate in feeding chambers 19 and 20 in reciprocating feeder 15. Chambers 19 and 20 alternate after filling in moving to the zone of high pressure where the solid particles are discharged into a paddle wheel device 16 for even distribution into high pressure chamber 17. Reciprocating piston assembly 24 is actuated by a double acting cylinder 23 which is timed in consonance with the live bottom bin 11 to move the assembly to a discharge mode after either chamber 19 or 20 is filled.

[ Having thus described the aforementioned invention, I claim:] [2.] A method for feeding biomass particles to fuel a gas turbine incorporating:a discharging means having a live bottom bin that feeds solid particles across the length of a flow dividing auger, wherein the auger feeds into two in line storage compartments above a reciprocating feeder, and;a controlling means to provide even discharge of the solid particles from a paddle wheel device into the high pressure chamber, whereby the biomass particles are supplied to the turbine on a continuous basis.
