In this work (part of a series in which different biomass conversion routes are studied) a novel coupling between gasification and pyrolysis is described: by means of a design parameter (α) biomass is distributed between these two operations. In order to characterize the quality of the syngas produced, simulations are performed with a gasification / pyrolysis simulator, GASDS.

Abstract

In this work (part of a series in which different biomass conversion routes are studied) a novel coupling between gasification and pyrolysis is described: by means of a design parameter (α) biomass is distributed between these two operations. In order to characterize the quality of the syngas produced, simulations are performed with a gasification / pyrolysis simulator, GASDS. Profiles were obtained for oxygen consumption, together with bio-char, syngas and steam production as a function of α. In a further work, an economic analysis shall define optimal design conditions.
