GASIFICATION - Coggle Diagram
GASIFICATION
Work principle
Involve the reaction of carbonaceous feedstock with an oxygen containing reagent (oxygen, air, steam, CO2)
-
Used partial oxidation-oxygen is added but the amounts are not sufficient to allow the fuel to be completely oxidized and full combustion to occur
Main product
Gasification process + Limited oxygen = Syngas (CO2, Methane, Hydrogen)
-
Types of gasifier
• Vertical fixed bed
• Requires a uniform, homogenous fuel
-
-
-
• Fluidized bed
-
-
• The temperature are low in dry ash, so the fuel must be highly reactive
-

Disadvantages
• Syngas is toxic and potentially explosive
• The required syngas conditioning and cleaning is today costly
