A new distributed gasification system for solid fuels is proposed, which is named as MEET (the Multi-staged Enthalpy Extraction Tlechno]ogy) system. In order to realize this system, a demonstration plant of commercial scale, the MEET-II, was constructed.The capacity of the MEET-II is 200kg/h. MEET-II faci]ity consists of a pebble bed slagging-gasifier, a gas clean-up system, a high temperature air generator and a gas engine.The pebble bed slagging-gasifier contains a fixed ceramic ball bed under an entrained tlow bed, High temperature air ef about 1,OOO℃ is used as a gas"ication medium in order to obtain higher calorific value syngas.Gasification and power generation tests at the MEET-II facility were conducted using powdered wood biomass as fuels. These tests demonstrated technicai feasibility of the MEET-II faci[ity.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
