2. 1. Biomass gasification in ABFB : Tar mitigation

   Author : Nemanova Vera; Klas Engvall; Joan Salvadó; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ash; biomass; char; gasification; iron-based; petcoke; tar; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

   Abstract : Biomass gasification may be an attractive alternative for meeting future energy demand. Although gasification is a mature technology, it has yet to be fully commercialised due to tar formation. This study focuses on the tar mitigation in gas produced in an atmospheric bubbling fluidised bed (ABFB) gasification system. READ MORE

4. 2. Alkali-enhanced gasification of biomass : laboratory-scale experimental studies

   Author : Albert Bach-Oller; Kentaro Umeki; Viktor Scherer; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; alkali; biomass; gasification; tar; soot; potassium; char; syngas; enhanced; Energiteknik; Energy Engineering;

   Abstract : Gasification seeks to break carbonaceous materials into synthetic gas (CO+H2) which can be subsequently upgraded into valuable products. Thus gasification can be utilized to convert low grade biomass stocks into carbon-neutral chemicals heat and power. READ MORE

5. 3. Char conversion kinetics and aerosol characterization in biomass gasification

   Author : Leteng Lin; Michael Strand; Alberto Gómez-Barea; Linnéuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biomass gasification; fluidized bed; char; kinetics; aerosol; APS; TEOM; Bioenergiteknik Energi- och Miljöteknik; Bioenergy Technology;

   Abstract : Biomass gasification is a thermochemical conversion by partial oxidation at elevated temperature of solid biomass into a gaseous energy carrier. The product gas contains the major components CO, H2, CO2, CH4, as well as some tar and inorganic impurities and solid particles such as ash, bed material, soot and char. READ MORE

6. 4. Benzene-char conversion and particle-vapor characterization in biomass gasification

   Author : Mario Morgalla; Michael Strand; Leteng Lin; Henrik Wiinikka; Linnéuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; biomass gasification; fluidized bed; particulate matter; aerosol; char; tars; benzene conversion.; Bioenergiteknik Energi- och Miljöteknik; Bioenergy Technology;

   Abstract : Biomass is increasingly attracting attention as an alternative to fossil fuels. Gasification permits the thermochemical conversion of biomass into a product gas rich in carbon monoxide and hydrogen. The product gas can be further processed to generate heat, electricity, synthesis gas, chemicals, and biofuels. READ MORE

7. 5. Pyrolysis of biomass. Rapid pyrolysis at high temperature. Slow pyrolysis for active carbon preparation

   Author : Rolando Zanzi; KTH; []
   Keywords : rapid pyrolysis; pyrolysis; wood; agricultural residues; biomass; char; tar; gas; char reactivity; gasification; steam; active carbon;

   Abstract : Pyrolysis of biomass consists of heating solid biomass inthe absence of air to produce solid, liquid and gaseous fuels.In the first part of this thesis rapid pyrolysis of wood(birch) and some agricultural residues (olive waste, sugarcanebagasse and wheat straw in untreated and in pelletized form) athigh temperature (800ºC–1000ºC) is studied ina free fall reactor at pilot scale.
