Feasibility and technoeconomic analysis of small-scale biomass to power system with novel producer gas cleanup technology
… such iteration of this technology involves novel producer gas cleanup and tar removal, where instead of using chemical processes, the system employs rich partial combustion through auto-ignition to destroy tars in vapor form above 300°C. This investigation serves to technically and financially …

Achieving net-zero CO2 emissions from indirect co-combustion of biomass and natural gas with carbon capture using a novel amine blend
… a result of unprecedented levels of greenhouse gases, particularly CO2, in the atmosphere, the need to minimize CO2 emissions into the atmosphere has become very crucial. The energy sector remains the largest source of CO2 emissions, therefore, a technology which allows for achieving netzero CO2 …

Biomass Integrated Gasification Combined Cycles (BIGCC)
… or via thermo-chemical conversion to liquid or gas fuels. This study focuses on employing gasification technology to convert biomass waste to producer gas, which is then cleaned and fed as gaseous fuel into the gas turbine. Since the producer gases are usually low caloric values, the power …

Modelling and simulation of combustion of dilute syngas fuels in a CFR engine
… to operate on alternative fuels such as syngas and producer gas. However, the inability to predict the combustion characteristics of the alternative fuel, such as burn rates and auto-ignition conditions, is a significant challenge when simulation-based design of an engine is intended. The …

Design and operational characteristics of a gasification-combustion process: flammability model
… reported here explored the flammable range of gasification product “producer gas” in a combustion chamber to ensure complete combustion. Rising fuel prices has led to increased research in renewable energy sources. Biomass is a renewable resource whose use does not result in a net increase of …

The design, evaluation and costing of biomass gasifiers
… to enable a greater understanding of the biomass gasification process through the development and use of process and economic models. A new theoretical equilibrium model of gasification is described using the operating condition called the adiabatic carbon boundary. This represents an ideal …

Economics of using biomass electric power for energy application of light commercial building
… by use of the state of art technology in gasifiers. Commercial units recently placed in the market have a potential of using the energy available in the biomass in producing electric power as well as in meeting the other building loads most efficiently, with negligible environmental …

Modeling Of USS Gasification To Evaluate New Gasifier Design In Aspen Plus
<p>Evaluation of ultra-superheated-steam (USS) gasification efficiency of coals to produce hydrogen enriched syngas is the research motive of this joint project between the University of North Dakota and Ohio University. A new USS bubbling fuidized bed gasifier was built in Ohio and several tasks …
