WOOD GASIFICATION. INFLUENCE OF PROCESS PARAMETERS ON THE TAR FORMATION AND GAS CLEANING

Abstract

We present an analysis of influence of biomass pre-treatment and change of gasifying agent on the performance of an oxygen-steam-air updraft gasification plant and a technological process capable of delivering high quality producer gas. The results of these changes on composition of tar collected with absorption type gas purification unit, designed for dust and tar removal are also reported.
