“…Besides, effective use of bioresource suggests significant potential to mitigate the greenhouse emissions problem. Among all the thermal conversion technologies, gasification is an efficient and clean process in which feedstock undergoes partial oxidation reaction with an oxidized medium to produce synthesis gas [2,3]. However, the dispersed distribution and seasonal supply [4] of biomass restrict the further commercialization of biomass alone gasification technology.…”

“…Therefore, it is very likely that the process of thermal decomposition in CO 2 atmosphere of the B ? V blend is analogous to cogasification of coal (or petroleum coke) and biomass blends [27][28][29]. …”

“…Sodium and, mainly, potassium present higher catalytic activity among these metals [23][24][25][26]. Several reports related to the gasification of coal/biomass blends noticed such catalytic effect when a biomass rich in Na or K was employed [27][28][29].…”

The aim of this work was on the thermal characterization of wastes of the sugarcane industry, such as bagasse, filter cake and vinasse, in both forms: pure and blended. Thermogravimetric analysis (TG), derivative thermogravimetric (DTG) and differential thermal analysis (DTA) were used for the evaluation of the thermal behavior of the samples under four different atmospheres: N 2 , CO 2 , N 2 /O 2 and CO 2 /O 2 . Comparison of thermal behavior of the samples under combustion (N 2 /O 2 ) and oxy-combustion (CO 2 /O 2 ) reveals that replacing N 2 by CO 2 causes displacement of mass loss steps to higher temperatures and increases some DTG peaks. Higher heat capacity of carbon dioxide and higher partial pressure of CO 2 molecules in relation to N 2 ones explain these observations. Under CO 2 (100 %) environment, an endothermic event-due to CO release-is observed at around 900°C, which is attributed to the reverse Boudouard reaction. Interestingly, in all samples, when vinasse is present, such endothermic event starts at lower temperature (*700°C), which can be understood as a reaction catalyzed by the high potassium content in the vinasse. Synergistic effect studies indicated that bagasse improved reactivity of blends due to its higher volatile content. Since there are no reports regarding the thermal characterization of wastes of the sugarcane industry under combustion, oxy-combustion and gasification atmospheres, this work establishes an important database for the study of similar types of biomass in the field of bioenergy.

“…and a diversity of downstream chemicals as a substitute for petrochemicals. Under this circumstance, research interest is resurging more than in the recession period from a climax of the last 70-80 s with respect to coal gasification, but it seems like the current trend is towards making use of more inferior coal resources such as lignite [1][2][3] and other untraditional gasification feedstocks [4][5][6].…”
