Gasification
Ankur Scientific Energy Technologies Pvt. Ltd.
Basic Process Chemistry• Conversion of solid fuels into combustible gas
mixture called producer gas (CO + H2 + CH4)
• Involves partial combustion of biomass
• Four distinct process in the gasifier viz.
• Drying
• Pyrolysis
• Combustion
• Reduction
