“…Different biomass has a certain influence on the yield of gasification products, which indicates that the gasification reaction is closely related to the properties of solid biofuels. The variety of biofuels, its physical properties and moisture content have a great influence on the gasification reaction (Zang et al, 2018). The fuel undergoes drying and pyrolysis reactions at the combination of fast pyrolysis and high temperature in FTG, producing heavy hydrocarbon tars.…”

The steam gasification properties and kinetics, products distribution and syngas composition derived from land, coastal zone and marine biomass have been studied by TGA and free-fall tubular gasifier. Volume model, shrinking core model and random pore model were applied to describe the reaction kinetics. The influence of temperature and fuel types on steam gasification in a free-fall tubular gasifier were clarified simultaneously. Results showed that gasification reactivity of reed (Re) and Sargassum horneri (Sh) chars were better than that of corn stalks (Cs) char, which mostly determined by its carbonaceous structure and the varying inorganic contents. RPM model was applied successfully to corresponding to the experimental data. Bench scale reactor test found that the steam gasification of Re gave the largest amount of gaseous product than Sh and Cs, while no liquidus formation in Sh. An increase in the temperature during gasification process boosted produced sharply total gas production yield, more yield of H 2 and CO 2 and less CO and CH 4 from different biomass.

“…r-1-0010 blows air into the fixed bed gasifier and the poultry drier with the power consumption according to its operation menus. The heat exchanger is designed to cool the hot syngas from the gasifier to produce warm air using a MHeatX unit in the Aspen Plus [35]. Moreover, the boiler has an energy efficiency of 90%, which is simulated by a RGibbs reactor [36], works under 900 • C with 20% excess air according to a typical fluidized bed boiler design [37].…”

Despite growing attention has been paid to waste material gasification for high-efficiency energy conversion, the application of gasification technology in meat waste management is still limited. To fill this gap, this study designed two systems which evaluated the potential of using gasification technology to manage the poultry waste that has been exposed to highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI). Two systems are simulated by using Aspen plus combined with a one-dimensional kinetics control gasification model, and wood or dried poultry is selected as the feedstock for the gasifier. The results show that the energy efficiency of the poultry drying system (wood gasification) is 14.5%, which is 12% lower than that of the poultry gasification system when the poultry energy is accounted as energy input. Even though the economic analysis indicates the poultry elimination cost of the poultry gasification system is only 30 $/tonne lower than the poultry drying system, taking the absence of dried poultry burial into consideration, the poultry gasification system has development potentials. The sensitivity analysis shows that labor fee and variable factor has larger effects on the poultry elimination cost, while the uncertainty analysis determines the uncertainty level of the economic analysis results.

Advanced Evaluation of a Biomass Externally Fired Hydrogen Production Combined Cycle

et al. 2021

Hydrogen is produced by an externally fired combined cycle and can be consumed in different ways. For the present study, both common and realistic thermodynamic and exergoeconomic analyses were applied. With the realistic method, the results are not necessarily in accordance with common analyses. The compressor pressure ratio (rp) and the gas turbine inlet temperature (TIT) are the varying parameters in common analyses. Varying rp identifies optimum energy and exergy efficiencies. With the common exergy analysis, the gasifier and the heat recovery steam generator have low exergy efficiencies, but the modified analysis assigns high exergy efficiencies to them.
